Newcastle are now preparing for the Carabao Cup final against Manchester United and Kieran Trippier has pinpointed two stars who they will need to stop.

“I’m excited by the training week. Plenty has changed since they last met though and the game is set up to be a close encounter. “We’re desperate to play in it, do well and do the club proud.” [Howe explained in his press conference.](https://www.football365.com/news/howe-urges-newcastle-man-rewrite-story-career-carabao-cup-final) “I think it’s been a difficult few weeks for us because the talk has been about [the final] even though it’s been two or three (league) games down the line. “I need to focus on myself, team and how we prepare to try and hurt Man United.” Trippier is well aware of the attacking threat that Man United pose and he believes that Marcus Rashford is the most in-form player in the world right now.

However, the outcome of the match may depend on how Casemiro’s partner plays, which has been a concern while Christian Eriksen was out due to Marcel Sabitzer’s inexperience at Old Trafford, Fred’s inconsistent play, and Scott McTominay’s recent return from injury. On their way to the final, they defeated Premier League teams Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest, but Newcastle is unquestionably their hardest opponent to far in this competition. Joelinton and Miguel Almiron failed to take advantage of wonderful opportunities for Newcastle, but Marcus Rashford’s late header for the home team could have won it. Although Newcastle has made significant progress this year, it would be difficult to argue that they are currently on par with Manchester United. But, this weekend, which offers both clubs a chance to end their respective trophy droughts, will be the centre of their immediate attention. On Sunday at Wembley, Manchester United and Newcastle United will face off in a battle for the Carabao Cup.Both teams have been in excellent form this year, and each is making a serious push to place in the top four in the Premier League.

On a brighter note, [Bruno Guimaraes](/people/bruno-guimaraes/) has served his domestic suspension and can return to an injury-hit midfield.

The Man Utd frontman has scored five goals and provided two assists on United’s journey to the final. Almiron has been a bit of a talisman for Howe’s side and is Newcastle’s top scorer in the league with ten goals so far this season. He has made more accurate through balls than any other play in the competition, with three, and has won possession 25 times in midfield, the second highest on record. In the Premier League no Man Utd player has made more tackles than Casemiro, with 55 tackles made. He’s featured in five of United’s Carabao Cup fixtures and has assisted two of Marcus Rashford’s goals. [Casemiro (Man Utd) – 7.18](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/88526/Show/Casemiro) Manchester United’s captain and highest rated player, Bruno Fernandes proves time and time again that he is dependable for Man Utd. Completing the defence is United’s Luke Shaw. He has won 56 aerial duals which places him in the top ten in the Premier League. He has also made more than double the crosses of any other player in the competition with 52. He has an 100% save ratio in the League Cup this season and Man United have kept a joint highest four clean sheets in the competition. Of those available for selection, Man Utd dominate the team with seven players to Newcastle’s four.

Erik ten Hag can make it 1-for-1 when it comes to silverware hunts when he leads Manchester United into Wembley to meet Newcastle in the League Cup Final.

Arsenal v Brighton Aston Villa v Spurs Brentford v West Ham Chelsea v Nottingham Forest Crystal Palace v AFC Bournemouth Everton v Man City Leeds v Newcastle Leicester v Liverpool Man Utd v Wolves Southampton v Fulham AFC Bournemouth v Chelsea Brighton v Everton Fulham v Leicester Liverpool v Brentford Man City v Leeds Newcastle v Arsenal Nottingham Forest v Southampton Spurs v Crystal Palace West Ham v Man Utd Wolves v Aston Villa Below is the full schedule, as you can watch all 380 games across our NBC platforms. Who will be the surprise package? Wolves have so many talented players that it’s a real head-scratcher as to why they are battling at the wrong end of the table. Wolves were shocked last weekend as they lost at home to Bournemouth as Julen Lopetegui’s men remain in the relegation scrap. Bernd Leno has been a great signing in goal, while midfielders Joao Palhinha and Harrison Reed give the defense a wonderful shield and then Willian and Andreas Pereira have been exceptional in supporting Aleksandar Mitrovic. Marco Silva’s side have had a sensational season and only Manchester United have won more Premier League games than them since the World Cup break. Southampton are within three points of safety and as bad as their season has been, there is renewed hope that Selles can turn things around. After sacking Nathan Jones following a disastrous run of eight defeats from nine Premier League games, Selles is respected by the Southampton players and the assistant coach has stepped up admirably. Chelsea is not scoring goals, at least not often or at anywhere near the rate we expect from the club that’s given us so many wondrous goals from Eden Hazard, Diego Costa, and others over the years. And it will need more from him as other positions in Spurs lineup take a hit.

At the back, captain Harry Maguire will be desperate to start, but faces a tough test displacing one of Raphael Varane or Lisandro Martinez. Newcastle will be without star goalkeeper Nick Pope after his remarkable red card against Liverpool last time out. The Red Devils, meanwhile, look on the right track under Erik ten Hag as the manager looks to return the giant to former glories.

Once regarded as the laughing stock of the Premier League, Newcastle are emerging as a genuine force for the first time since Kevin Keegan's 'entertainers' came close to winning the title in the 1990s.

The League Cup final is set for Sunday at Wembley, with a pair of historic clubs set to clash. As Manchester United and Newcastle United meet, our soccer ...

The second is the Over 1.5 on Manchester United's team total (+120). On the other side of full-time, however, neither of the odds to lift the trophy are appealing. There's a chance we head to extra time at 1-1 but the possibility one of these sides finds a decisive goal inside 90 minutes makes the plus-money on the full-game total too good to pass up. He's a fairly mistake-prone player and is 18th in post-shot xG (minus goals allowed) at -1.2 this season. With their club revolution still in its infancy, they don't have anyone capable of replicating Bruno's quality in midfield and the final third. Making matters (almost impossibly) worse, second-choice goalkeeper Martin Dubravka is cup-tied, having played in the competition in the fall while on loan at (of course) Man United. While it hardly has been since the World Cup break, there is reason for optimism looking to Sunday. Manchester United are back in a cup final for the first time since the 2021 Europa League, which they lost on penalties to Villareal. Third-choice goalkeeper, Karl Darlow, was allowed to leave on loan in the final minutes of the January transfer window. The lead-up to Wembley, however, has derailed such a notion. In Man United's 18 games across competitions, since the resumption of play following the World Cup, they've averaged 2.27 goals per game. Over 2.5 (+105)
