Chelsea and Liverpool play the latest match in their long rivalry with a place in the Capital One Cup final up for grabs.

The Blues have a small advantage going into this game at Stamford Bridge after the first leg at Anfield was drawn 1-1 - Jose Mourinho's team have an away goal but that will only kick in if the match is still 1-1 on aggregate after extra-time (read more on the away goals rule in the Capital One Cup here).

Chelsea fans will be expecting a strong reaction after they were humiliated by League One Bradford City at the Bridge in the FA Cup on Saturday. Premier League leading Chelsea had been leading Phil Parkinson's team 2-0 at one point of the first half, before the Bantams fought back to deliver one of the greatest Cup shocks of all time, eventually winning 4-2.

Mourinho will likely make a host of changes tonight, with Cesc Fabregas, John Terry and Diego Costa to return.

Liverpool were held to a goalless draw at home by Bolton Wanderers on Saturday and Brendan Rodgers will be hoping for a similar reaction.
