Match facts
Manchester City v Everton (19:45 GMT)
Manchester City have only once overturned a semi-final first-leg deficit to reach the final. They beat Middlesbrough 4-0 in 1976, after losing the first leg 1-0. City went on to lift the trophy.
This is only the second time in five League Cup semi-final appearances in which Everton held a lead going into the second leg. They beat Aston Villa in the first leg in 1984, progressing to the final.
The Citizens have never lost at home in a cup competition to Everton (W3 D1), although they last hosted the Toffees in the FA Cup in March 1981.
Romelu Lukaku has scored four goals in five League Cup appearances this season.
Managers' view
Manchester City v Everton (19:45 GMT)
City manager Manuel Pellegrini: "It's the third time we'll play Everton in one month - we know their team.
"The most important thing is to try to play another final at Wembley. That is our target. If we don't qualify for the final, it's not because of [the first leg] but because we can't win at home at least 1-0.
"Our team will do all they can to get there too."
Everton manager Roberto Martinez: "Disappointments are painful at the moment because results have not been fair in reflecting the efforts and football we have played.
"Getting a big achievement and reach something quite special could help to that positive outlook in our games. It will be an enormous landmark for the club if we can reach the final of the League Cup."

Morecambe boss Jim Bentley claimed he would sell some of his players if he could after they conceded two late goals to lose at home to Mansfield.
The Shrimps were leading through a Paul Mullin penalty but with four minutes to go, Chris Clements and Adi Yussuf secured three points for the Stags.
Asked about the performance, Bentley told BBC Radio Lancashire: "Shocking, absolutely shocking.
"There would be a few of them (the players) I would empty out right away if I had a couple of quid to bring a few players in, because they were weak and lacked character."

Swansea sign Blair
Football
Swansea have signed Scottish midfielder Ryan Blair from Falkirk for an undisclosed fee.
The 19-year-old, who has penned a three-and-a-half year deal, becomes the first Swansea signing since Francesco Guidolin was appointed as head coach last week.
Ever since the contract of Stuart Lancaster was terminated, new England rugby union coach Eddie Jones has wasted no time in stamping his own mark on the role...and that includes tossing his predecessor's beloved inspirational quotes in the skip.
The inscriptions have been removed from the walls of the squad's Surrey training base. Among them is this pearl of wisdom from Arnold Schwarzenegger.
"Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength."
"I'm not a big fan of his movies," Jones said. So perhaps Arnie is gone for good. Or maybe, just maybe...he'll be back.

Sturridge is world class - Rodgers
Football
Former Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has described Reds striker Daniel Sturridge as "world class" and backed him to come good at Anfield.
"Daniel is a great fella and he wants to play, but it is just difficult for him to get a run of training," Rodgers told Talksport.
"What is so frustrating as a manager is that he is a genuine world-class player. Nine out of 10 players, in that situation you maybe would sell, but because of his talent Liverpool haven't.
"Daniel is a player that makes a difference. When you have that type of player you want to do everything you can for him. He makes the team better. He makes everyone else better. He has got everything."
