Ex-Manchester United goalkeeper Ben Foster has warned his former side the Carabao Cup final will be no walk in the park. There's a general consensus on social media that the balance has shifted in the Red Devils favour after Nick Pope was sent off against Liverpool, ruling him out of the final at the weekend.
Martin Dubravka is cup-tied having played for Erik Ten Hag's side earlier in the season, leaving either Karius or Mark Gillespie to start at Wembley. Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has kept his team selection close to his chest ahead of the final, not giving away any indication as to who could start.
It would be the first competitive action for either goalkeeper, with neither having played a first-team game in over two-years. Foster, who could have signed for the Magpies earlier this season, believes Karius has unfairly carried round the tag of 'calamity goalkeeper' after making two mistakes for Liverpool in the Champions League Final against Real Madrid back in 2018.
