Newcastle United Reaches Carabao Cup Semi-Final

Newcastle United will face Arsenal in the Carabao Cup semi-finals, with the first leg scheduled at the Emirates and the second at St James' Park. Manager Eddie Howe expressed confidence in his team's performance at home, where they have historically fared well against Arsenal. Newcastle recently secured a 3-1 victory over Brentford in the quarter-finals, with Sandro Tonali scoring twice, showcasing his improved form in a deeper midfield role. However, Howe is concerned about losing key players Bruno Guimaraes and Fabian Schar due to suspensions for the semi-finals. Despite these setbacks, Howe believes his squad is developing well and building confidence as they aim for their first trophy since 1955. The upcoming matches will test Newcastle's depth and resilience against a formidable opponent.
