Thousands of Newcastle United fans will descend on Wembley for Sunday's EFL Cup final against Manchester United.
The Magpies, who have never won the EFL Cup, are aiming to win their first major trophy since they won the Fair Cities Cup in 1969.
Sunday's eagerly-anticipated contest represents the first time that Newcastle have been involved in a final at the new Wembley.
Here, Sports Mole marks the memorable occasion by looking back at the Magpies' last five appearances in a Wembley final.
FA Cup final: Newcastle 0-2 Manchester United (May 22, 1999)
Newcastle had reached their second straight FA Cup final thanks to an Alan Shearer brace in the semi-final against Tottenham Hotspur.
Their final opponents received a setback in the ninth minute when their captain Roy Keane was forced off through injury.
However, it proved to be a blessing in disguise for the Red Devils, as his replacement Teddy Sheringham scored the opening goal within two minutes of his introduction.
Paul Scholes had combined with Sheringham for the opener, and the midfielder put his own name on the scoresheet in the second half with a driven effort that condemned Ruud Gullit's Magpies to defeat.
Just four days later, Man United went on to secure a historic treble with a dramatic 2-1 victory over Bayern Munich in the Champions League final, with Sheringham and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer scoring in stoppage time.
FA Cup final: Newcastle 0-2 Arsenal (May 16, 1998)
Unbeknown to Newcastle at the time, but this would represent the first of two successive FA Cup finals which the Magpies would lose by a 2-0 scoreline.
Shearer's strike on the hour mark was enough to eliminate second-tier outfit Sheffield United in the semi-finals, ending Newcastle's 22-year wait for a domestic cup final.
Marc Overmars opened the scoring for the Gunners midway through the first half, holding off Alessandro Pistone to latch onto Emmanuel Petit's well-weighted pass, before sliding the ball under the onrushing Shay Given.
Newcastle went agonisingly close to equalising in the second half, striking the woodwork on two occasions.
First, Nikos Dabizas's thumping header bounced off the crossbar, while Shearer pounced on a Martin Keown mistake, but his left foot strike was denied by the post.
Those missed opportunities proved to be costly, as 19-year-old Nicolas Anelka added a second for Arsenal in the 69th minute, helping the Gunners win both domestic cup competitions in the same season.
League Cup final: Newcastle 1-2 Manchester City (February 28, 1976)
Newcastle's only previous appearance in a League Cup final took place nearly half a century ago after they overturned a 1-0 deficit in the first leg of their semi-final with Tottenham.
With home advantage in their favour, Newcastle claimed a 3-1 second-leg victory to reach a Wembley final two years after finishing runners-up in the FA Cup.
Man City moved in front thanks to Peter Barnes's early strike, but Alan Gowling managed to restore parity in the 35th minute.
Just after half time, Man City's Newcastle-born winger Dennis Tueart, who had previously played for the Magpies' bitter rivals Sunderland, produced a spectacular overhead kick to win the silverware.
Forty-seven years later, Newcastle will be hoping for better fortunes as they attempt to become the 24th team to win the League Cup.
FA Cup Final: Newcastle 0-3 Liverpool (May 5, 1974)
Nineteen years since their previous FA Cup final, Newcastle returned to Wembley to face Bill Shankly's Liverpool.
However, the contest proved to be a chastening experience for the Magpies, who were blown away by their Merseyside opponents.
Following a goalless first half, Kevin Keegan, who would later go on to play and manage Newcastle, opened the scoring with a thumping effort that found the net despite the best efforts of Willie McFaul.
Steve Heighway added a second with a driven strike into the bottom corner, before Keegan turned home Jimmy Smith's low cross to seal Liverpool's second FA Cup.
Incidentally, the final was Shankly's final game in charge, as he retired in July of that year and was subsequently replaced by Bob Paisley.
FA Cup final: Newcastle 3-1 Manchester City (May 7, 1955)
Newcastle had previously won the FA Cup on five occasions, including success in consecutive seasons in 1950-1951 and 1951-1952.
After being forced to a replay by York City in the semi-final, the Magpies claimed a 2-0 victory in the second game to book their place at Wembley.
Jackie Millburn headed home Newcastle's opener inside the opening minute, before Man City's Jimmy Meadows was forced off with a serious leg injury, which ultimately forced him to retire from playing.
With substitutions not allowed at the time, Man City had to play over 70 minutes with 10 men, but they managed to equalise through Bobby Johnson.
However, Newcastle made their numerical advantage count in the second half, as Bobby Mitchell and George Hannah grabbed a goal apiece to guide the Magpies to their sixth FA Cup trophy. body check tags ::
