Liverpool and Newcastle today clash in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley.
It will be fascinating to see how the Reds react to their first real setback under head coach Arne Slot.
The Carabao Cup was of course the last trophy Jurgen Klopp won during his time with the club after an injury-stricken team of exciting younger players managed to overcome Chelsea last year, the Merseyside giants lifting it for a record-extending tenth time in the club’s history.
Standing in their way of an eleventh, however, are the Toon Army.
Eddie Howe’s Newcastle beat Arsenal in both legs of the semi-final to get to their second final in two years and are desperate to avenge their defeat to Manchester United at this stage in 2023.
For all the improvement Newcastle have made over the past few years, Howe’s side simply didn’t show up that day.
Things will surely be different here, albeit that may still not be enough to beat this Liverpool side.
Here’s everything you need to know about the game.
