How to watch Manchester United vs Newcastle: TV channel and live stream for Carabao Cup game today

Manchester United and Newcastle clash in the Carabao Cup tonight in one of the signature ties in round four.

A place in the quarter-finals is up for grabs in what is a repeat of last year's showpiece, when the Red Devils finally ended their six-year trophy drought at Wembley courtesy of a 2-0 win secured by first-half goals from Casemiro and Marcus Rashford.

The mood is far gloomier now at Old Trafford, where United were easily dismantled by City in a one-sided Manchester derby affair on Sunday.

That result further highlighted the enormous gulf in class between the two sides and piled more pressure on manager Erik ten Hag, who has struggled badly to recapture the progress and positivity that marked his first campaign in charge.

Newcastle, meanwhile, have won only one of their last four games since that famous thrashing of Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League last month, twice blowing a lead to draw at Wolves in the Premier League at the weekend.

Now without key summer signing Sandro Tonali for the rest of the season due to a betting ban, Eddie Howe will be eager for his players to bounce back and pile more misery on Ten Hag tonight and move one step closer back to Wembley and a first major domestic trophy since 1955.
