Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United avoided each other in the draw for the EFL Cup quarter-finals.

Liverpool have been handed an EFL Cup quarter-final tie with Leeds following their 2-1 win over Tottenham on Tuesday evening.

Daniel Sturridge scored twice for the eight-time winners and they will welcome the Sky Bet Championship outfit to Anfield following the Yorkshire side’s penalty shootout victory over Norwich.

Manchester United’s reward for a 1-0 win over Manchester City is a home tie against West Ham, while Southampton will travel to Arsenal after they edged a 1-0 victory of their own over Sunderland.

In-form Championship leaders Newcastle will head to Premier League strugglers Hull after their comfortable win over Preston.
