Manchester City faces Newcastle this Tuesday (13th), at 5pm (Brasília time), in a first game valid for the semi-finals of the English League Cup. The match will be held at St. James’ Park, in Newcastle, and will be broadcast on ESPN and Disney+ Premium.
City arrive for the match after beating Exeter 10-1 in the third round of the FA Cup. In the previous round of the English League Cup, they beat Brentford 2-0.
The return match is scheduled for February 4th, at the Etihad Stadium, in Manchester. The other semi-final will be decided between Chelsea and Arsenal.

Manchester City lineup against Newcastle
City arrives full of absences for the match. Josko Gvardiol (fractured tibia), Rúben Dias (thigh injury), Savinho (unspecified injury), Oscar Bobb, John Stones (both thigh injuries) and Mateo Kovacic (ankle/heel injury) are all out injured, while Omar Marmoush is out for the Africa Cup of Nations and Rayan Ait-Nouri is not yet expected to be fit to play.
Therefore, it is likely that Guardiola will take to the field again with a mixed team, just as happened against Exeter in the FA Cup.

Newcastle’s probable lineup
Pope; Miley, Thiaw, Scháw and Hall; Bruno Guimarians, Tonal and Joelinton; Murphy, Wissa and Barnes. Technical: Eddie Howe.
