Newcastle United star Kieran Trippier believes his team are far better prepared for the Carabao Cup final than they were the last time they made it to Wembley.

Eddie Howe's side lost to Manchester United in the 2023 final, with Casemiro and Marcus Rashford scoring, but now have a chance to make up for that reverse.

Anthony Gordon will miss the final as he serves the second match of a three-game ban for his red card against Brighton in the FA Cup, while defenders Lewis Hall and Sven Botman are injured.

Trippier believes Newcastle have learned from their mistakes, though.

I’m not saying it was bad last time but we’re more prepared because we’ve been in this position now.

“We played United in the last cup final and we’re more relaxed?

Kieran Trippier could start at Wembley with fellow full-back Lewis Hall injured.

The Brazilian is one of the survivors from the 2023 final, and believes his team can overcome their absentee list to win this weekend.

Opponents Liverpool also won't be at full strength on Sunday.

It is a long time for the fans without a trophy.
