Ritchie, Willock, Krafth and Hall all start as Howe makes 8 changes vs Man Utd

The team sheets are in at Old Trafford, where Newcastle United take on Manchester United for a place in the quarter-final of the Carabao Cup.

Here’s the side Eddie Howe has gone with against last season’s winners:

STARTING XI: Dubravka, – Livramento, Krafth, Dummett, Targett – Hall, Longstaff, Willock – Ritchie, Gordon, Joelinton.

SUBS: Karius, Trippier, Lascelles, Wilson, Burn, Guimaraes, Diallo, Parkinson.

Howe has made EIGHT changes from Saturday’s 2-2 draw at Wolves, seeing Martin Dubravka, Paul Dummett, Emil Krafth, Tino Livramento, Matt Targett, Lewis Hall, Joe Willock and Matt Ritchie all start.

Sean Longstaff captains the side, with he, Joelinton and Anthony Gordon the only three to keep their place from last weekend’s game.

As expected, Alexander Isak (groin), Jacob Murphy (dislocated shoulder), Elliot Anderson (back), Sven Botman (knee), Sandro Tonali (suspension) Lewis Miley (glandular fever), Harvey Barnes (foot) and Javier Manquillo (groin) all miss out.

Man Utd XI: Onana; Dalot, Maguire, Lindelof, Reguilon; Casemiro, Hannibal, Mount; Antony, Martial, Garnacho.

A tough ask with so many changes, but this is a struggling Man Utd side who could be their for the taking if we can make a fast start.

HWTL!
