Can Slot Secure His First Liverpool Trophy?

Liverpool have been the real deal in the Premier League this season, winning 21 of 29 matches. The Reds are 15 points clear of Arsenal and look nailed on to win the title. However, they were knocked out of the UEFA Champions League at the last-16 stage by Paris Saint-Germain last week.

Arne Slot guided Liverpool to wins over West Ham United, Brighton & Hove Albion, and Southampton to reach the EFL Cup semi-finals. They lost the first leg 1-0 to Tottenham Hotspur but bounced back with a convincing 4-0 home win to go through.

Newcastle are pushing for a Champions League spot in the Premier League. The Magpies are well and truly in the mix, sitting sixth on 47 points. Eddie Howe’s men have won 14, drawn five, and lost nine.

On their way to the last four of the EFL Cup, United beat Nottingham Forest, Wimbledon, Chelsea, and Brentford. They then stunned Arsenal in the semi-finals, winning 2-0 home and away.
