The confirmed Newcastle team against Nottingham Forest has now been announced.
Eddie How’s side returns to Premier League promotion.
Today’s game, United sees this season looking for successive victories.
Newcastle United won all three games against Nottingham Forest last season. At home and away in the competition, plus the first step towards the final Carabao Cup Glory near Wembley.
Another victory against them today will send United to the international break with a lot of momentum and rising trust.
Newcastle team against Nottingham Forest:
Pope, Trippier, Thiaw, Botman, Burn, Bruno, Joelinton, Tonali, Gordon, Woltemade, Elanga
An unchanged team, the same eleven that started against Union SG
Subs:
Ramsdale, Schar, Lascelles, Barnes, Krafth, Osula, Willock, Miley, Jacob Murphy
A little concern that Lewis Hall is not in the matchday match. He stood up as a sub against Union SG, but on Friday Eddie Howe said that he should carefully manage the involvement of the defender, because Hall is fully ready to get fully fit and stay like that after the operation and recovery.
Also no Jacob Ramsey, despite positive sounds from Eddie Howe that he would hopefully be in the team today.
