The first piece of domestic silverware is up for grabs at Wembley Stadium on Sunday afternoon, as Liverpool and Newcastle contest the EFL Cup final.
Arne Slot’s side booked their tickets to this year's showpiece after sweeping aside Tottenham 4-1 on aggregate at the semi-final stage.
As for Newcastle, they reached the Carabao Cup final for the second time in three seasons after making light work of Arsenal over two legs.
The two teams will head into this weekend's Wembley showdown off the back of contrasting results.
Liverpool were knocked out of the Champions League on Tuesday night after losing 4-1 on penalties to Paris Saint-Germain, on a night where my Bet Builder banked at Anfield.
Newcastle, on the other hand, boosted their Premier League top four hopes with a hard-fought 1-0 win away at West Ham on Monday night.
How the bookies view it: Reds to reign supreme
Liverpool – who boast a record tally of 10 EFL Cup triumphs – are 6/10 favourites on Boylesports to win inside 90 minutes.
Newcastle are as big as 7/2 with Boylesports to end what is currently a near 56 year trophy drought.
Last year’s EFL Cup final required extra-time and another stalemate in regulation time can be backed at 14/5 on Boylesports.
Head to head: Reds rule the roost
Liverpool have avoided defeat in each of their last 17 meetings with Newcastle across all competitions, triumphing 2-0 at Anfield at the tail end of last month. That makes a Liverpool win alongside under 4.5 goals an attractive Bet Builder option on Sunday at 21/20 on Boylesports.
Players to watch: Salah to fire Liverpool to glory?
With a phenomenal return of 32 goals across his 42 appearances in all competitions for Liverpool this season, Mohamed Salah stands out for an anytime strike on Sunday afternoon at 20/21 on Boylesports.
Newcastle will look to their own talisman Alexander Isak for inspiration at Wembley. The Swedish sharpshooter is 7/4 (Boylesports) to land a blow on Liverpool’s defence.
Predicted line-ups
Trent Alexander Arnold has been ruled out of Sunday’s EFL Cup final after being forced off during the second-half on Tuesday night against PSG with an ankle injury, while Conor Bradley, Joe Gomez and Tyler Morton are also currently residing in the Reds medical room.
Newcastle will be without injured trio Jamaal Lascelles, Lewis Hall and Sven Botman, while influential winger Anthony Gordon will not be available due to suspension.
Liverpool: Alisson; Quansah, Konate, Van Dijik, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo, Diaz
Newcastle: Pope; Trippier, Schar, Burn, Livramento; Tonali, Guimaraes, Willock; Murphy, Isak, Joelinton
Anything else catch the eye?
Given that cup finals can often be cagey affairs, the 5/6 on Bet 365 for no cards to be shown before the 28th minute looks worthy of interest.
Both averaging under two per cards per game, Liverpool and Newcastle are among the most well behaved sides in the Premier League this season.
What’s more, this particular bet would have paid out in the recent top flight between meeting the pair, with the only card shown on that occasion not arriving until the 80th minute of the match.
