JAKARTA - The defending Carabo Cup champion, Newcastle United, will face Manchester City in the semi-finals. Eddie Howe's team will host the first leg against the eight-time English League Cup champions at St James' Park.

Manchester City secured a place in the top four after beating Brentford 2-0 through goals from Rayan Cherki (32') and Savinho (67') on Thursday, December 18, 2025.

Meanwhile, The Magpies had to wait until the end of the game to win the quarterfinal match against Fulham with a score of 2-1 on the same day.

Previously, Chelsea had first stepped into the semifinals. Enzo Maresca's team defeated the English third division team (League One), Cardiff City, with a score of 3-1 on Wednesday, December 17, 2025 WIB.

However, The Blues don't know who they will face in the top four. The reason is, the Arsenal vs Crystal Palace match in the quarter finals will only roll next week, precisely on December 24, 2025 WIB.

Arsenal and Crystal Palace's schedule at the Emirates Stadium is different from other quarterfinal matches because it has to be rescheduled following the Eagles' participation in the UEFA Conference League this week.

Chelsea, five-time English League Cup champions, have the chance to host at Stamford Bridge in the first leg.

The first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final will start on January 12, 2026. The second leg takes place three weeks later.
