Newport County v Newcastle United

Cup specialists Newport County are aiming for another giant-killing when they face Premier League Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup fourth round on Wednesday.

The League Two side have beaten Leeds, Leicester and Middlesbrough in recent seasons and drawn with Tottenham.

County have also beaten Championship clubs Swansea and Watford this season to reach round four for the first time.

"It's going to be a tough challenge," said Newport manager Mike Flynn.

He has guided his team to two wins and a draw in their opening three league games, alongside their impressive cup form.

"You saw what Newcastle did to Morecambe (won 7-0), who are in our league, last week," he added.
