Gary Lineker presents live coverage of the League Cup final between Championship club Cardiff City and Premier League side Liverpool.

For Liverpool, reaching Wembley for the first time since 1996 represents a real boost to the morale of a club who are still fighting to return to the pinnacle of English football, having largely dominated in the 70s and 80s. Kenny Dalglish was the inspiration then, on the field, and - now in his second spell as boss at his beloved Anfield - is determined once more to prove his effectiveness off it.

Standing in Liverpool's way are an ambitious Championship club who will be making their third trip to Wembley in five years. Since joining from Watford Malky Mackay has continued the fine work of previous manager Dave Jones, but ultimately the Bluebirds would trade endless Wembley trips - and possibly even a lifting a cup - to reach the promised land of the Premier League.

Gary is joined in the studio by Alan Shearer and Alan Hansen, with Guy Mowbray and Mark Lawrenson providing match commentary.
