Sunderland-born Jill Scott has revealed she will be in attendance as Newcastle United face Liverpool in the Carbao Cup on Sunday at Wembley.

Liverpool will be looking to retain the Carabao Cup and bounce back from their midweek Champions League exit, while Newcastle are looking to end a 70-year domestic trophy drought by winning the competition for the first time. The Magpies reached the final back in 2023 but were beaten 2-0 by Manchester United.

Newcastle progressed to the final by beating Nottingham Forest on penalties, AFC Wimbledon, Chelsea, Brentford and Arsenal over two legs while Liverpool beat West Ham, Brighton, Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur over two legs to earn their spot at Wembley.
