Liverpool will be looking to bounce back from their absolute horror show away at Bolton in the league on Saturday by getting the result that they need that takes them to the Carling Cup final at Wembley. They caused a surprise in the 1st leg at the Etihad Arena when they beat Manchester City 1-0. The Sky Blue half of Manchester have been less than convincing though in recent weeks and elimination on Wednesday from the Carling Cup would be a blow for a team that desires trophies.

Both Cardiff City and Crystal Palace go into action again on Tuesday with both teams being just one game away from a major Wembley final. The winners of this tie face either Liverpool or Manchester City. Palace go into this tie with a 1-0 lead from the first leg and even though they were underdogs going into this tie based on league position, that counts for very little in the heat of battle of a cup tie.
