Crystal Palace's Ismaila Sarr scored two goals to lead his team to a surprising 3-0 victory over struggling Liverpool in the fourth round of the English Football League Cup. This result continues the struggles of manager Arne Slot's team. At Anfield, Slot rested most of his key players, as did other major Premier League clubs who played on Wednesday. Liverpool suffered their sixth defeat in their last seven matches across all competitions. Meanwhile, reigning champions Newcastle United won 2-0 against Tottenham Hotspur. Arsenal beat Brighton & Hove Albion 2-0. Manchester City fought back to win 3-1 against second-tier Swansea City, and Chelsea defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 4-3. The match was relatively even for much of the game.
