Kick-off time: The Carabao Cup final between Arsenal and Manchester City takes place at Wembley Stadium. Extra time: Unlike the earlier rounds of the competition, where matches went straight to penalties, the final will utilise extra time. VAR rules: Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology will be in full operation for the final at Wembley. Having already represented Crystal Palace in this year's Carabao Cup, EFL rules prevent him from playing for a second club in the same edition. Concussion Substitutes: In addition to standard tactical changes, concussion subs are available.
