THE PREDICTION
Newcastle have been handed a favourable draw to this point in the competition and they will be confident of another success as they face League 2 side Newport. The hosts are unbeaten so far this season, earning seven points from a possible nine in the league whilst they have earned eye-catching victories over Championship teams to reach the fourth round. Watford were their latest victims last week and they will smell blood against Steve Bruce’s side who came in for criticism despite earning a controversial point against Tottenham at the weekend. Newcastle are likely to rotate their side for this encounter but their side will still be strong and having put seven past Morecambe in the last round, they should still have too much class for the home side.
