Brighton's Hurzeler prioritizes Carabao Cup, aiming for title victory

The head coach is expected to shake up his lineup for tonight's match, but he has emphasized that the Carabao Cup presents a significant opportunity for his team to secure a trophy.

“For me in Germany you only have the DFB Cup. For me, cup competitions are always a competition where you can win a title," he said. 

“I want to win titles, the club want to win titles, players want to win titles. It is a chance for us. 

“I know we have three days later an important Premier League game (at home to Nottingham Forest) “But I take this game very seriously and I will also transmit this message to my team. 

“The Carabao Cup is a chance to win a title so therefore we take it very seriously. 

“We try to prepare this game like a Premier League game and hopefully we have a chance to win this game.”
