All the action from the final at Wembley Stadium. The Reds won this competition last year, with Virgil van Dijk scoring the only goal of the game in extra time to help them overcome Chelsea in the showpiece match.

Liverpool do not have a recognised right-back for the Wembley final because Conor Bradley and Joe Gomez are still recovering from injuries so Jarell Quansah is likely to fill in. Newcastle have Anthony Gordon suspended while Lewis Hall and Sven Botman remain out injured. Both managers must decide which goalkeeper to put in.

Newcastle have conceded only two goals in their six EFL Cup ties against Nottingham Forest, AFC Wimbledon, Chelsea, Brentford and Arsenal, who were beaten 4-0 on aggregate in the two-legged semi-final.
