Mauricio Pochettino has called for a fair fight in Sunday’s Carabao Cup final, demanding that Liverpool receive no favours at Wembley Stadium just because Jurgen Klopp is departing.

Pochettino is still angry at the refereeing from Chelsea’s 4-1 Premier League defeat at Anfield last month, listing on Friday the decisions which he felt Paul Tierney got wrong.

Chris Kavanagh will oversee Sunday’s showdown under the Wembley arch as Liverpool aim to make sure Klopp lifts at least one trophy in his farewell tour.

‘When we played against Liverpool at Anfield, not one key decision was for us. Two penalties were not given. Duels, 50-50s, always for another colour, always red. I want to be treated in a fair way.

‘I am the first who is going to say that Liverpool is amazing and Klopp is one of the best coaches in the world. But after my last experience playing there, what I want in Wembley is to go there and not feel the pressure. It is to play a game in the same level and the best team will win.’

Pochettino is seeking his first trophy in English football and added: ‘We want to win because of Chelsea. 

‘Of course Liverpool want to win. But please, not another party involved in the game, will be part of the celebration that Klopp is leaving, no? That is important.’
