The quarterfinal stage in the EFL Cup takes place this week, as only four sides will be able to progress through to the semi-finals. One of the standout ties will take place at Anfield on Wednesday, as Liverpool look for a response after playing out a 0-0 draw against Man United when they host West Ham.
Before Betting On Liverpool vs West Ham
Just eight sides remain in the hunt for EFL Cup glory in England this season, and two of the standout teams remaining in the hunt will collide at Anfield on Wednesday. Liverpool have won the EFL Cup on nine previous occasions, and they will be looking for a second success in three seasons in 2023-24.
However, the Reds will need to show massive improvement after their perfect home record at Anfield across all competitions was ended on Sunday following an uneventful 0-0 draw against Man United. The Reds have been strong in the previous two rounds of the competition, which included a 2-1 away win against Bournemouth in the previous round.
West Ham will be the massive outsiders in the betting for this fixture on Wednesday, but the Hammers have shown that they are a high-quality cup side in recent seasons after winning the Europa Conference League at the end of last term. However, their away record at Anfield is extremely poor, which would be a massive concern ahead of this quarterfinal showdown.
However, the Hammers have already upset the odds in the competition this term after knocking out Arsenal in the round of 16. That was potentially West Ham’s best performance of the season so far, as the Gunners had no answer for the attacking questions posed by the Hammers at the London Stadium.

West Ham have struggled in matches at Anfield across recent seasons, and that would be a clear concern ahead of this showdown in the last eight. Therefore, we will be siding with the home side producing a return to form in front of their own fans against the Hammers.
