The EFL have confirmed John Brooks has been appointed as the referee for the Carabao Cup final between Liverpool and Newcastle.
Brooks will take charge of the clash at Wembley on Sunday, with Eddie Smart and Nick Greenhalgh named as his assistants.
Darren England will be the fourth official, with Stuart Attwell and Sian Massey-Ellis serving as VAR and assistant VAR for the match.
Referee Brooks has previously taken charge of one match between Liverpool and Newcastle, with Attwell also serving as the VAR.
The Reds emerged as 2-1 winners at St James' Park in August 2023 despite being reduced to 10-men.
