ARSENAL will face Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final at 4.30pm on Sunday February 25.
The Wembley clash takes place just a day earlier than last year’s final and at exactly the same time.
And that should allow any City fans plenty of time to get the train back, even if the match goes to extra time, with the last one from Euston scheduled for 9.51pm.
The game is a repeat of last year’s FA Cup semi-final, where Arsenal came back from Sergio Aguero’s strike to win 2-1 through goals from Nacho Monreal and Alexis Sanchez.
An EFL announcement confirmed: “Tickets for the Carabao Cup Final can only be purchased directly from the two finalist clubs and are not available from either the EFL or from Wembley Stadium.
“Ahead of kick-off between the two sides, British mezzo-soprano Faryl Smith will take to the pitch to sing the national anthem.”
