Chelsea are set to kick off their EFL Cup journey with a third-round clash against Barrow at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday evening.

After narrowly missing out on the trophy last season, losing to Liverpool in the final, the Blues are determined to clinch their sixth league cup title this year. The team, under the guidance of Enzo Maresca, has shown promising form in the Premier League, securing three wins out of their last five matches. Their latest triumph came with a commanding 3-0 victory over West Ham at the London Stadium on Saturday.

Switching gears to cup competition, Chelsea are now focused on their midweek fixture against Barrow, who are leading the charge in League Two. Stephen Clemence’s squad ascended to the top of the fourth-tier standings following a solid 2-0 win over Newport this past Saturday.

Barrow’s journey to this prestigious third-round match was marked by a thrilling penalty shootout victory against Derby County in round two, setting up an exciting encounter at Stamford Bridge.
