Newcastle host Manchester City in the tie of the Carabao Cup fourth round tonight.
Newcastle reached the Carabao Cup final last season, where they were defeated by Manchester United at Wembley, but Eddie Howe’s side got the worst possible draw when they landed the European champions at St James Park.
City will be attempting to regain the Carabao Cup this season and have a strong record in the competition under Pep Guardiola. Last season’s treble winners have won every game they have played so far this campaign, including a 1-0 victory over Newcastle in the Premier League at the Etihad.
