Paul Merson gives his Liverpool Fc vs Chelsea Carabao Cup final prediction

Football pundit Paul Merson has given his prediction for the Carabao Cup final between Chelsea and Liverpool FC on Sunday.

The former Arsenal midfielder is expecting a fierce game between both sides and struggled to pick a winner when previewing the fixture.

“When I look at the two teams and how they’ve performed this season, I think this could be an absolute humdinger of a game with lots of goals,” he said.

“Chelsea are one of the best teams in the world defensively, but Liverpool’s front three is extraordinary and I fancy them to score against most teams across the continent.

“The Wembley Stadium is an iconic venue and we’ve witnessed some sensational games of football in the capital over the years.

“Predicting a game like this is an impossible task, but I’m going for a 2-2 draw! As for penalties? Flip a coin, because there’s absolutely no one on the planet who can predict which one of these two sides would prevail in such a situation.”
