The French international hopeful Sekou Mara launched the Saints (1-0, 23rd), before the Malian Moussa Djenepo doubled the bet (2-0, 28th). The entries of Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland, in the second half, will not have changed anything. Winners of 4 of the last 5 editions of the League Cup, the Citizens miss the last four. In addition to Manchester United, Newcastle and Southampton, Nottingham Forest (15th in PL) dominated Wolverhampton (19th), on penalties (1-1, 4-3 tab). Ruben Neves and Joseph Hodge missed their shot. The semi-finals, which will oppose Southampton to Newcastle and Nottingham Forest to Manchester United, will be played in home and away matches on January 23 and 30.
