The Carabao Cup quarter-final draw for the 2025–26 season has already taken place: it was held on Wednesday 29 October 2025, after the completion of the round-of-16 ties.

Draw timing

  • The 2025–26 Carabao Cup quarter-final draw was scheduled to start shortly after Newcastle United’s fourth-round game against Tottenham Hotspur, which kicked off at 8 p.m. UK time.
  • Because there is no extra time at that stage, the draw was expected to be around 10–10:30 p.m. UK time once the match (and any penalties) finished.

Season context

  • For the 2025–26 competition, the EFL calendar set the quarter-final match week for the week commencing 15 December 2025.
  • The same schedule lists the semi‑final legs for the weeks starting 12 January and 2 February 2026, with the final at Wembley on 22 March 2026.
