Chelsea last won the League Cup in 2015, and in fact, have won the FA Cup four times and the Premier League title three times since that 2008 Tottenham League Cup championship. But in 2015, Chelsea won the League Cup by defeating the Spurs in the final, as the BBC reported, the last time Tottenham played in a final in any competition.

Spurs Manager Mauricio Pochettino said that his team is ready after pounding Tranmere Rovers in a FA Cup match 7-0 just four days ago and defeating Cardiff City 3-0 in a Premier League match three days before that, per Soccerway.

“Chelsea know how we play, we know how they play. It’s more about our performance and in 180 minutes we need to deserve to go through to the final,” the Spurs boss told TottenhamHotspur.com. “We know that tactics are secondary. The most important thing is the way we approach the game, our mentality. We need to fight for every ball.”

The winner of the Tottenham vs. Chelsea semifinal will likely take Manchester City in the League Cup final, as City draws League One opponent Burton Albion in the other semifinal.
