Liverpool have been drawn at home against Bournemouth in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals following a penalty shootout victory over Chelsea. The quarter-final ties are scheduled for the week commencing Monday, December 14, with the match expected to be played on Wednesday, December 16. Liverpool advanced after drawing 1-1 against Chelsea at Anfield, with Cody Gakpo equalizing Morgan Rogers' penalty, before winning 6-5 in the shootout.

The quarter-final clash will be part of an eight-match December schedule for Liverpool across all competitions.

The fixture also marks the third match in a sequence of four consecutive home games at Anfield for the Reds.
