Liverpool will face Manchester City in the Capital One Cup (Football League Cup) final on Sunday, Feb. 28 at Wembley Stadium.
The Reds booked their place in the showpiece by overcoming Stoke City in a penalty shootout at Anfield on Tuesday, winning 6-5 after the series ended 1-1 on aggregate.
And Jurgen Klopp's men will be joined by Manchester City at England's national stadium next month after they saw off Everton in the other semi-final.
Manuel Pellegrini's side won 3-1 at The Etihad Stadium on Wednesday to claim a 4-3 aggregate result.
The final will kick off at 11:30 a.m. EST, while the Merseyside derby at Anfield previously scheduled for that day will be rearranged.
Already the most successful team in the competition's history with eight triumphs, this will be Liverpool's 12th appearance in the League Cup final.
