CupfinalArsenal and Manchester City battle it out for the season’s first piece of silverware

Hello and welcome to the last game of Super Sunday. And it is a cup finale.

Arsenal and Manchester City battle it out for the season’s first piece of silverware in the EFL Cup final at Wembley this afternoon.

The Gunners beat London rivals Chelsea last month to reach their first League Cup final since the 2011 defeat to Birmingham and Arsene Wenger will view the trophy as an opportunity to help save Arsenal’s season after a difficult Premier League campaign.

Meanwhile, City will be aiming to avoid two trophy disappointments in the space of six days after Monday’s shock FA Cup defeat to Wigan ended their pursuit of the quadruple.

Pep Guardiola is yet to win a title in England and will hope Sunday’s match marks the start of a long, successful period for the club.

Kickoff is at 16:30
