Chelsea and Tottenham kick off the Carabao Cup semi-finals tonight with a tasty all-London affair.

We have plenty of preview content ahead of that clash, as well as the latest transfer news and unique features for you to enjoy.

And be sure to make the most of the action later because tomorrow's semi between Arsenal and Liverpool has been postponed due to coronavirus. 

Chelsea vs Tottenham

Spurs boss Antonio Conte heads back to his old stomping ground of Stamford Bridge this evening for the first leg of a mouthwatering encounter.

The Blues have won six of their last eight meetings with their city rivals, losing only once, though that sole defeat did see them exit this very competition on penalties last term.

Thomas Tuchel will be hoping that £97.5million forward Romelu Lukaku can write some positive headlines after finding himself dropped for the 2-2 draw with Liverpool last Sunday following controversial comments in an interview.

Ahead of the clash this evening, we look at the importance of getting the best from the Belgian. 

With Spurs rapidly improving and Tuchel’s side enduring somewhat of a slump, which players would make a combined XI?

We have had a go at pulling our LiveScore side together — be sure to take a look and let us know what you think on social media.

The January window is already in full flow with deals being done on a daily basis around Europe. 

But not everyone can afford to battle for the game’s biggest stars and some clubs have to get creative when identifying realistic transfer targets.

We have taken a look at five gems from the Championship who look tailor-made for a step up to Premier League football.

Over in Italy, Roma boss Jose Mourinho looks set to make Arsenal’s Ainsley Maitland-Niles his first January swoop with a loan deal rumoured to have been agreed between the two clubs.

Could the Special One attempt to utilise his vast Premier League knowledge even more this window? We profile some of the players Mourinho could look to lure to Italy.

As well as the above, we have our usual daily dose of rumours in our Transfer Talk column.

Today, we lead on reports that Fiorentina hotshot Dusan Vlahovic is a top target for Arsenal, with the Gunners hoping to get in early to land their man.

Aside from the transfer gossip, we have plenty of great football features for you to enjoy.

We put Barcelona under the microscope after club president Joan Laporta declared the cash-strapped LaLiga giants are "back" following the signing of Ferran Torres from Manchester City.

West Ham forward Jarrod Bowen is also in the limelight with the Hammers attacker playing a starring role this season.

With three goals and seven assists in the league so far, we analyse whether Bowen could be a target for top clubs and even force his way into Gareth Southgate's World Cup plans.

There has also been plenty of change in Premier League dugouts this term. 

Check out our rankings of the new top-flight bosses, including Steven Gerrard, Ralf Rangnick and Claudio Ranieri.
