Can Newcastle rotating their players help Man Utd avoid losing.
"It really hurts, but now I'm motivated to come back and win the trophy that they truly deserve," said Eddie Howe, expressing his determination after Newcastle's loss to Manchester United in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley in March.
It will be interesting to see if the excitement for the competition still exists this week - because if it does, Newcastle could seek revenge and put more pressure on Erik ten Hag's currently struggling team, united.
Man Utd is feeling very upset after losing against Manchester City in the Manchester derby on Sunday. Their hopes of continuing their success from last year have been negatively affected by a concerning beginning to this season. Another defeat at Old Trafford would be very concerning. Newcastle have faced some difficulties this season, but they have been scoring a lot of goals in their recent Premier League games. This shows that they are a strong team and can be dangerous to their opponents.
But the question is whether Newcastle and Howe still care about the same things after that painful afternoon in rainy north London. Newcastle will play against Arsenal on Saturday in the Premier League. Their goal is to finish in the top five. After that, they will face Borussia Dortmund in an important Champions League match on the following Wednesday.
With Alexander Isak, Sven Botman, Jacob Murphy, Elliot Anderson, and Harvey Barnes hurt, and Sandro Tonali banned, we need to find a good balance in choosing who will play. Can Callum Wilson, who scored two goals in the match against Wolves, play in all three of those upcoming games. His time on the field will likely have to be carefully controlled. This could be the opportunity to give players like Kieran Trippier and Dan Burn a rest.
The visitors need to rotate their players to avoid Man Utd punishing them more.
