The Carabao Cup quarter-final draw was made on Wednesday night.
This followed the final six games of the fourth round having played out on Wednesday night.
Brentford and Southampton had progressed against Championship sides on Tuesday night.
Preston the last non-Premier League side left in and they lost at home to Arsenal on Wednesday night.
The big news of course was Newcastle United getting revenge on Chelsea and making the last eight.
Whilst other all Premier League clashes saw Tottenham, Man U, Palace and Liverpool also make it through.
Here is the full fourth round draw and then how the bookies see the chances of Newcastle United lifting the trophy now, as well as their competitors.
Full Carabao Cup fourth round draw
Spurs v Man U
Arsenal v Palace
Newcastle United v Brentford
Southampton v Liverpool
Man City going out is a massive bonus, as well as Villa and of course Chelsea!
The general odds from various bookies on which club will win the Carabao Cup this season (in brackets the odds before the fourth round matches were played this midweek):
11/4 (5/1) Arsenal
11/4 (8/1) Liverpool
9/2 (14/1) Newcastle United
6/1 (10/1) Man U
6/1 (14/1) Spurs
20/1 (25/1) Brentford
25/1 (33/1) Palace
40/1 (33/1) Southampton
Man City had been 3/1 favourites before this round of matches, whilst Chelsea were 8/1 joint third favourites before last night.
As you can see, all change with Newcastle United now third favourites.
Only shame with the draw, was that Arsenal and Liverpool didn’t get each other. The only important thing though is that NUFC have been handed a massive opportunity and whilst Thomas Frank’s side are no mugs, no Newcastle fan can have any complaints about how Wednesday night has played out.
