Looking to end a 70-year wait for a major domestic trophy, Newcastle take on Liverpool in the EFL Cup final on Sunday and it could be an unhappy return to Wembley for the Magpies.
Newcastle lost 2-0 to Manchester United in the final of this competition in 2023 and an even tougher test awaits them this week with runaway Premier League leaders Liverpool standing in their way.
The Reds were sent packing in the Champions League on Tuesday, losing to PSG on penalties after a grueling 120-minute second leg at Anfield.
There is, however, still decent turnaround time for Arne Slot’s side and that result is more likely to spur them on than deflate them.
