Newcastle have proved themselves capable of battling on all fronts this season as they surge to the European places in the Premier League, are 90 minutes away from sealing a place in the Carabao Cup final and pose equipped to fancy a decent F.A. Cup run.
Since losing 4-2 to Brentford at the start of December last year, The Magpies have consolidated a seven-game winning streak across all competitions, in which they have dismantled teams like Manchester United, Tottenham and Arsenal.
Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon were on the scoresheet in their last outing as Eddie Howe’s men now have a firm grip on the EFL Cup semi-final tie against The Gunners.
Arriving to this match in indomitable form, Newcastle should not have much trouble in trashing their opponents this weekend due to the huge quality gap between the teams.
Meanwhile, Bromley travel to Tyneside to play their first-ever F.A. Cup third-round matchup. Andy Woodman’s men emerged victorious in a 4-3 punting spectacleer in the first round when they defeated Rochdale and were made to work hard to seal a win against Solihull Moors in the second round.
Despite orchestrating a 3-0 victory over Gillingham in their first game of the New Year, The Ravens were on the wrong end of a 4-1 affair with Crewe Alexandra in their last match.
Bromley currently sit in 12th place in the League Two standings and 14 points away from the relegation zone. They were tilted to be one of the outfits struggling at the bottom of the table throughout the season but they changed the narrative with a run of favourable results in good preparation moments of the campaign.
