Carabao Cup: Arsenal, Liverpool, Fulham, Brentford, Peterborough reach fourth round

Arsenal, Liverpool, Fulham, Brentford and Peterborough United have advanced to the Carabao Cup fourth round after Tuesday night's third-round ties. Arsenal beat Ipswich Town 4-2 at Portman Road, with Max Dowman scoring twice on his first appearance this season, plus goals from Noni Madueke and Mikel Merino; Ipswich's consolation came from Mehmeti and Chuba Akpom. Liverpool defeated Tottenham Hotspur 3-1, courtesy of a striking effort by Dominik Szoboszlai, while Fulham edged West Ham 3-2. Brentford secured a 2-1 win over Reading, and Peterborough United needed penalties to overcome Barnsley after a 2-2 draw.

These results matter to Nigerian football fans who follow English cup competitions, especially those tracking players such as Chuba Akpom, who scored for Ipswich. The Carabao Cup often features Premier League clubs and provides a route to silverware, influencing fan interest, betting markets and weekend viewing plans across West Africa.
