Manchester City and Liverpool resume their respective campaigns after pausing for the World Cup, with their first match coming against one another in the Carabao Cup.
The teams are rivals in the Premier League, of course, having battled for the title for the past several years, although this season has seen Liverpool fall down the table to sixth place while City are in second behind Arsenal. Despite the lack of direct competition between the two in the league so far, one can expect the years of rivalry to manifest itself during their round of 16 clash on Thursday.
City eased past Chelsea in the previous round, with a pair of second-half goal leading to a 2-0 victory. Meanwhile, Liverpool struggled more than they should have against League One side Derby County, requiring a penalty shoot-out to prevail at Anfield after a 0-0 draw through normal and extra time.
Based on form, both in the league and in this competition, City should be favoured. However, given the month-long break both teams have just had, Liverpool could use this match as a fresh start.
