The road to Wembley continues tonight as Newcastle United welcome Manchester City for a blockbuster EFL Cup semi-final showdown at St James’ Park.
Kick-off is set for 11:00 pm, with both sides eyeing a crucial first-leg advantage in a tie that promises intensity, quality, and high stakes.
Newcastle come into the encounter buoyed by their strong home form and the electric atmosphere expected under the lights on Tyneside. Eddie Howe’s side will be hoping to channel memories of their recent domestic cup runs as they look to overcome one of Europe’s most formidable teams.

With a place in the Carabao Cup final on the line, tonight’s contest could be defined by fine margins, tactical discipline, and moments of individual brilliance.
All eyes will be on St James’ Park as two Premier League heavyweights battle it out for a step closer to Wembley glory.
