Leicester City faces a big challenge as they take on Manchester United in the Carabao Cup fourth round on Wednesday night. Steve Cooper’s team has progressed by overcoming League Two sides Tranmere Rovers and Walsall, while Manchester United, now led by interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy after Erik ten Hag’s recent departure, defeated Barnsley 7-1 in the third round.
Leicester has reached this stage for the third time in four years, but this encounter promises to be their toughest yet. The Foxes enter the match with the memory of a recent 3-1 defeat against rivals Nottingham Forest. The incentive to win is strong, as a victory at Old Trafford would secure them a £15,000 prize and a spot in the quarter-finals, where prize money increases to £25,000 for winners, and ultimately, the Carabao Cup champion will earn £100,000.
The quarter-final draw will take place after Tottenham’s match with Manchester City on Wednesday, October 30, around 10:30 PM GMT, and can be viewed on Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Football, and Sky Go.
For fans wanting to watch Leicester’s clash against United, it will be available through Sky Sports+ on Sky’s streaming platforms like Now TV and Sky Go.
