How to watch Newcastle United vs Bromley - TV channel, BBC iPlayer live stream, kick-off time
Magic of the FA Cup? Fairytale giantkilling? Let's have none of that at St James' Park today as Newcastle United take on League Two Bromley. Sure, the whole country will be willing on Andy Woodman's minnows to cause a huge upset, but Eddie Howe will be keen for a routine win in front of a sell-out St James' Park.
United have had more that their fair share of cup shocks, and while Howe is expected to make plenty changes today, he will not be taking anything for granted. Newcastle had a tough battle at Arsenal in the Carabao Cup last week and face Wolves in the Premier League on Wednesday, so this is a good chance to give some fringe players a start.
Bromley manager Woodman is no stranger to Tyneside, of course, having worked on the coaching staff under Alan Pardew, and he's dreaming of a day to remember. Here's all you need to know ahead of today's game.

Early Newcastle United team news
Eddie Howe will make several changes to his starting XI today, with Wednesday's Premier League game with Wolves in mind, and last week's exertions at Arsenal in the Carabao Cup. Alexander Isak won't be involved having picked up a minor knock at the Emirates, although he is expected to be fine for next Wednesday.
Kieran Trippier, Matt Targett, Lewis Miley, Sean Longstaff, Lloyd Kelly and Harvey Barnes are just some of the players who could come into a much-changed side today, with Will Osula also in line for a starting role.
