Depends on the schedule.
If it was anything like this week when we had less than 48 hours to prepare after playing Man City I doubt it.

Arsenal V Spurs tomorrow morning. Hoping we play our B side, much more important things to worry about like the Champions League than this.

CL is 2 months away.
You have some pretty easy games in the EPL over the Christmas period so wouldn’t be surprised if you fielded a strong lineup tomorrow

We have 3 games in 6 days ovet Xmas as opposed to someone like Liverpool that has 3 in 10 days. We need to conserve our limited squad especially now we have a few injuries.
I couldn't care less about the Carabao Cup. The only thing its useful for is giving our 2nd stringers a run.

Most definitely the Cup is the lowest of priorities. I think Liverpool plays 3 in 8 days and City 3 in 7.
With the CL being so far away we have seen in the past that some of the bigger clubs put up fairly decent sides still but like you I wouldn’t be fussed if we went out early every season
