■Major missed people in Liverpool
・Trent Alexander Arnold
・Connor Bradley
・Joe Gomez
・Tyler Morton
Liverpool has been injured on the final line. Defender Joe Gomez injured his hamstring in the fourth round of the FA Cup on February 9th and was forced to be out for a long period until the end of the season. Defender Connor Bradley suffered a muscular injury in the match against Aston Villa on February 19th, and it will take some time for him to return. Defender Trent Alexander Arnold was substituted in the match against Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) on the 11th of this month, and coach Arne Slott said on the 14th that he will not be competing in the Carabao Cup final. Defender Ibrahima Konate, who was also injured in a match against PSG, is reportedly expected to make it in time for the Carabao Cup final.
Liverpool will lack three players who can play at right-back, but according to local reports, there is a high possibility that Jarrell Quanser, who has played in the same position since coming on as a substitute, will be used in the starting lineup. (As of March 14th)
■Major Newcastle absentees
・Sven Bottman
・Lewis Hall
・Anthony Gordon
Newcastle is aiming to win the main title for the first time since 1955, but earlier this month center back Sven Bottman and left-back Lewis Hall were injured. Anthony Gordon has also been suspended for three games after receiving a red card against Brighton in the FA Cup, and it has been decided that the three main players will be missing in the Carabao Cup final.
However, coach Eddie Howe commented at a press conference that “all other players can compete,” and said with optimism, “It's not easy to lose important players, but we have to unite and get stronger and come back,” and “We've been trying to increase our strengths. We're very motivated, and that's why our victory against West Ham was very important. Everything is positive.”
Liverpool vs Newcastle will be streamed live on DAZN/ABEMA de DAZN.
