This week will see the final of the EFL Cup, with Chelsea and Liverpool vying for the trophy.

Match Stats

Chelsea enters the game with a three-match unbeaten streak, featuring notable wins against Aston Villa and Crystal Palace, along with a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Manchester City. Prior to this positive run, they endured heavy defeats, conceding four goals each against Wolves and today's opponents, Liverpool. Despite defensive concerns with 11 goals conceded in their last five games, Chelsea's overall results have shown improvement in recent months, particularly in cup competitions. Mauricio Pochettino will aim to shore up their defense while maintaining their attacking prowess, having scored 10 goals in the same five-game span.



Liverpool enters this game with the opportunity to compete for four trophies in what marks Jurgen Klopp's final year with the club. Alongside their Premier League lead, they remain in contention in the FA Cup and Europa League. Despite a significant injury list, Liverpool has maintained their winning form, securing victories even with key players sidelined. The availability of Mo Salah and Darwin Nunez will influence Klopp's team selection, but with just one loss in their last 10 Premier League matches, whoever takes the field should feel confident, especially considering their recent 4-1 victory over the same opponent.


The form book suggests the Chelsea v Liverpool Carabao Cup Final should go the way of the Reds, but with Jurgen Klopp having several key players out injured, Chelsea may have a much better chance than many expect. This fixture has a long history of tight and close games, with many draws in recent times and I can't see Sunday being any different. Recent finals between these two teams have finished all square with Liverpool winning on penalties. 


Prediction: Chelsea 1-2 Liverpool
