Charlie Nicholas is back to serve up his predictions for the Carabao Cup quarter-finals, with two ties live on Sky Sports Football, and thinks Manchester City could be in line for a first domestic defeat.

Four of the Premier League's top five remain in contention and are favourites for their respective fixtures, although the Arsenal legend reckons the top-flight's runaway leaders could come unstuck in the cup..

Here's what he's tipping for Tuesday and Wednesday's games...

Leicester v Manchester City (Tuesday, 7.45pm, live on Sky Sports Football)
This a really good cup tie, despite the fact Leicester were brought crashing back down to reality at the weekend following their fine run.

Manchester City will make changes but just look at the names coming in. Gabriel Jesus will probably start, Yaya Toure will probably come in alongside Ilkay Gundogan, who will want to get some more minutes.

I can see the young lads Phil Foden and Brahim Diaz getting their chances in a similar amount of changes to the Shakhtar game, which was significant enough to disrupt their rhythm despite the quality of players.

I backed Shakhtar to get the win and I can see another upset for Pep Guardiola's men here with the pace and power Leicester can break with.

I think the West Ham boys will be given a deserved rest here. I'm a strong believer in momentum but it has been an intense run for them and they were fantastic at the weekend.

David Moyes is a friend of mine but it was always going to be a graft for him. The tools were there with the likes of Marko Arnautovic and Winston Reid, who was being touted as a £20m signing for Liverpool 18 months ago, but it has been impressive how quickly he's got them all pulling in the same direction.
