Liverpool goalkeeper Freddie Woodman knows the importance of Carabao Cup

Freddie Woodman stressed the importance of the Carabao Cup as Liverpool take on Crystal Palace in the competition.

Following a frustrating patch of form in the Premier League, where the Reds are on a four-game losing run, the attention now turns to cup action as Arne Slot’s side prepare to host Palace in the last 16 on Wednesday.

Both teams have already met this season in the league as the Eagles claimed a 2-1 win at Selhurst Park in September thanks to Eddie Nketiah’s last-gasp goal.
