Manchester City is the current holder of The Carabao Cup. However, will not get a chance to defend their trophy because they were eliminated from the competition in front of their home fans by West Ham United. The Citizens had won the Carabao Cup four consecutive times under Pep Guardiola since the 2017/18 season.

In addition to that Manchester City is the most successful club in this competition with six titles under their name. However, Chelsea will have a chance to equal this record on Sunday night when they face Liverpool at Wembley Stadium for the English football league cup finals.

The Blues have an upper hand in this fixture over Liverpool because of the following reasons. Firstly, Chelsea has a fully fit squad, unlike Liverpool who is experiencing an injury crisis in the first-team squad. This will give Thomas Tuchel plenty of options during the team selections.

Secondly, Chelsea's defense will have an easy time when dealing with Liverpool's attacking force. This is because Liverpool manager Klopp already confirmed that both Diego Jota and Robert Firmino might miss this important clash due to injury. The two strikers picked up injuries in their first-leg clash against Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16. This means Mo Salah will be the only big threat in Liverpool's front three.

Thirdly, Thomas Tuchel has installed a winning mentality in his squad since taking over from Frank Lampard. All players are always determined to win that's why nowadays it has become difficult to get past Chelsea. Thus, Liverpool will have to play extremely good if they are to be crowned the Carabao Cup winners on Sunday night.

Lastly, The Blues will be determined to increase their tally to this season. Already Chelsea won the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA club world cup and will now be eying their third trophy.
