Liverpool vs Newcastle – Predicted lineup and team news
Liverpool take on Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley this afternoon.
The first silverware of the season will be decided in the capital, as Arne Slot looks to win his first trophy with the Reds.
Liverpool’s focus returns to domestic competitions, following their exit from the Champions League to Paris Saint-Germain. A shootout defeat ended hopes of European success, but the Merseysiders are still well positioned for a memorable campaign.
