The last time Liverpool and Chelsea competed in League Cup finals, both games were decided on penalties.
Both losing to Man City, on each occasion the goalkeeper was the story.
In 2016, Jurgen Klopp’s side drew 1-1 after Philippe Coutinho had cancelled out Fernandinho’s opener, before veteran reserve shot-stopper Willy Caballero saved from the Brazilian, Lucas Leiva and Adam Lallana in the shootout to emerge as City’s hero and justify his selection ahead of first-choice Joe Hart.
