Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho does not see their semi final against Brentford as a game against lower league opposition.
Brentford are impressing in the Championship this season, and nearly secured promotion last term through the playoffs.
Mourinho and Spurs will have to navigate a one off semi against Brentford, and the Portuguese manager is well aware of the threat they pose.
If they win, Spurs would take on Manchester City or Manchester United in the final.
On Spurs' chances of winning the Carabao Cup, Mourinho told reporters: "To win this trophy we need to win two matches. But they are two very difficult matches. To win other trophies you need to win much more matches.
"The FA Cup didn't start for us. The Europa League we are in the last 32. We are really far from getting there. In the Premier League I told you already what we are.
"But they are a very difficult two matches. If you win the first one you have to win the second. The teams that are going to be there are very difficult teams. Man City are very difficult. Brentford for me the way they play they are not Championship, they are Premier League.
"And Everton or Manchester United are one of the very top teams. But we are in the semi-finals and we will be there to fight."
