Liverpool vs Newcastle LIVE!

The Carabao Cup final takes centre stage at Wembley this afternoon with the first major silverware of the English domestic season up for grabs. Liverpool are targeting a memorable double with a huge lead in the Premier League title race, though will be wounded after suffering a rare setback with their midweek Champions League exit on penalties at the hands of PSG.

The Reds are still favourites to win their first trophy under Arne Slot, though have to cope without the injured Trent Alexander-Arnold today. Newcastle have their own share of key absentees with Anthony Gordon suspended and Lewis Hall and Sven Botman out, though Alexander Isak is fit and firing as Eddie Howe looks to lead the club to their first piece of major domestic silverware since 1955.

These sides have met twice already in the top-flight this season, with Liverpool winning 2-0 at Anfield last month after drawing a six-goal thriller on Tyneside in December. Newcastle have not beaten today’s opponents in their last 15 meetings, a run that stretches back to 2015. Follow Liverpool vs Newcastle in the Carabao Cup live below, with expert analysis from Standard Sport’s Dom Smith at Wembley.

The stage is set at Wembley as Liverpool and Newcastle contest today’s Carabao Cup final.

The first piece of major domestic English silverware of the season will be claimed today, with Premier League champions-elect Liverpool chasing the first part of a memorable double and their first trophy under Arne Slot.

However, they don’t come into the game on a high after being knocked out of the Champions League at the last-16 stage on penalties by Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield in midweek, a game in which Trent Alexander-Arnold was injured.

Newcastle have a number of key absentees of their own as they finally look to end a major domestic trophy drought stretching back 70 years to the 1955 FA Cup final.

The Magpies will need to turn around a woeful recent record against today’s opponents, whom they haven’t beaten in any competition since 2015.

Kick-off in today’s showpiece fixture is at 4:30pm GMT, so stay tuned for match build-up, team news, lineups and live updates including expert analysis from Standard Sport’s Dom Smith at Wembley.
