EFL Cup
Founded in 1960, it has a lower prestige than the FA Cup and Premier League. The tournament has a very simple structure: there are 7 rounds, with single legs ties throughout, except for the semi-finals. The final is held at the Wembley Stadium, which it will celebrate 100 years of existence tomorrow 28th April 2023. This is the only tie which is played on a weekend day, the other rounds being scheduled during the week. The competition commences in August and finishes in February next year. The current title holder is Manchester United which beat Newcastle United in the final act 2-0. As a result, the winners are granted a place in the next UEFA Conference League season. Overall, Liverpool is the most successful club with 9 titles, followed by Manchester City with 8 trophies. I would like to mention the fact that Man. City has won 6 of them over the last decade.
