Is Chelsea vs Liverpool on TV today? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Carabao Cup final

Chelsea face Liverpool at Wembley on Sunday, with both managers looking to put domestic cup final disappointments in the past.

Jurgen Klopp was beaten in his first final as Reds boss in this very competition back in 2016, losing on penalties to Man City.

It’s a much more recent event Thomas Tuchel wants to put behind him, with Chelsea beaten by Leicester City in the FA Cup final at the end of last term - though that defeat was of course somewhat lessened by the fact they ended up European champions instead.

These two teams met in the 2012 FA Cup final at this stadium, with the Blues triumphing after extra time on that occasion.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the final.

What is the team news?

Ben Chilwell is the only definite absentee for Chelsea, but there are fitness doubts over Mateo Kovacic, Hakim Ziyech and Reece James. All three should be fine to make the squad though, with James’ return from a long lay-off meaning he’s not likely to be in the XI. Thomas Tuchel has to decide whether to restore the out-of-form Romelu Lukaku to the line-up.

Liverpool are without Roberto Firmino, but Diogo Jota could make the bench after a return to outdoors training.
