Tottenham captain Hugo Lloris says they're out for revenge in the Carabao Cup quarterfinals this week at Arsenal.

Spurs return to the Emirates Stadium a little over two weeks since they lost a fiery encounter 4-2 in the Premier League, where there were issues both on and off the pitch.

"Maybe it's the good thing that we lost the Premier League game a few weeks ago because it is more motivation for us," Lloris said after Spurs stayed in the title race with a 1-0 win over Burnley on Saturday.

"There is no more bad feeling than when you get a defeat. You always try to analyse and make things that we will not repeat again. It is another opportunity and we will try our best to go through.

"Every game that you lose it hurts, but of course when you lead 2-1, it's true that Arsenal is playing very well this season and it is a difficult team to beat but I think we have the quality to do it.

"It is important to take every competition seriously, whatever the competition is.

"Of course there is priority in the season but it is a League Cup game and if you go through there is a semi-final and a good chance.

"And then it is a derby so it is easier to prepare for because there always excitement and enjoyment to play that type of game."
