Chelsea vs Tottenham
Tottenham have, of course, now gone some time without winning a trophy.
In fact, Spurs, despite somehow being dubbed one of the ‘top-six’ Premier League clubs, have not won a piece of silverware since 2008.
When they did so, they beat Chelsea in the League Cup final by two goals to one.
Now, it is Chelsea who stand in the away of Tottenham reaching the 2021/22 League Cup final.
The two London rivals are set to face off at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday evening in the first of two League Cup semi-final ties.

Given we are now already in the January transfer window, should the manager have not already had a meeting with the club to outline what he wants so the recruitment staff can begin working on it?
