West Ham vs Arsenal LIVE: Carabao Cup team news and line-ups as Declan Rice on the bench on return
West Ham host Arsenal in the Carabao Cup fourth round tonight as the two Premier League sides attempt to reach the quarter-final stage of the competition and Declan Rice returns to the London Stadium. Despite their Premier League opposition, Hammers boss David Moyes is expected to make sweeping changes to his team as he tries to halt a serious downturn in form. West Ham have gone four matches without a win and their most recent result, a 1-0 loss to Everton in the league, did not sit well with the fans. Their displeasure will evaporate overnight though should the Irons defeat Arsenal at the London Stadium. That won’t be an easy task though. Rotation is likely for Mikel Arteta’s side too as they must prepare for a tough league clash with Newcastle this weekend. That said, the Gunners are unbeaten in four games and put five goals past Sheffield United last time out, with Eddie Nketiah netting his first league hat-trick for the club, meaning they are in top form. With Manchester City already out of the league cup, this will be a competition Arteta will have his sights set on winning.

Carabao Cup extra time rules: What happens if fourth-round matches end in a draw?
Tonight’s Carabao Cup ties will go straight to penalties should they finish as a draw after 90 minutes, with extra-time only coming into play from the semi-final stage of the competition. Premier League leaders Tottenham were knocked out on penalties by Fulham earlier in the tournament, after the second-round match finished as a 1-1 draw following 90 minutes at Craven Cottage. Those rules will apply again tonight as plenty of Premier League sides are in action. Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea will all attempt to reach the quarter-finals, while the draw will take place at the conclusion of Manchester United vs Newcastle - in what is a rematch of last season’s final. League One’s Port Vale were the first team to reach the last eight of the Caraboa Cup, for the first time in their history, after defeating Mansfield Town on Tuesday evening, while an 83rd-minute penalty earned Middlesbrough a 3-2 victory away at Exeter. The quarter-final stage of the Carabao Cup will be played in the week commencing Monday 18 December, before the semi-finals are played across two legs in January. In the semi-finals, extra time will be played should the aggregate score be level at the end of the second leg, followed by penalties if required. The same rules are used for the Carabao Cup final, which is scheduled for 25 February 2024 at Wembley Stadium. Which teams are in the draw and what are their ball numbers? 1. Middlesbrough 2. Port Vale 3. AFC Bournemouth or Liverpool 4. Chelsea or Blackburn Rovers 5. Everton or Burnley 6. Ipswich Town or Fulham 7. Manchester United or Newcastle United 8.
