Reliable League Cup live streams are essential for the 2023/24 season, and FourFourTwo has you covered on how to watch each round of the competition.

The semi-final second legs take place on January 23 and 24, with the two winners progressing to the final at Wembley on February 25 for the first shot at silverware this season. 

Middlesbrough head to Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night with a 1-0 advantage against Chelsea, after their shock victory in the first leg. While it'll still be a tough ask for Michael Carrick's side to hold on over the course of 90 - or potentially even 120 - minutes, Boro are in the ascendancy in this tie. 

Fulham, meanwhile, will host Liverpool at Craven Cottage on Wednesday needing to overcome their 2-1 deficit to continue their dreams of glory next month. The Reds are without key player Mohamed Salah, but Jurgen Klopp will certainly fancy his side's chances to head to the home of football. 

The League Cup TV rights in the UK are exclusively held by Sky Sports, with the broadcaster showcasing two live matches from the first round to the fifth. It will also show both semi-finals and the final of the League Cup.

VPN Guide

Use a VPN to watch the League Cup from outside your country

Use a VPN to watch League Cup football from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for a round of League Cup fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch all of the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there, including:
