Newcastle United is set to face AFC Wimbledon in the Carabao Cup third round at St. James' Park, with the winner earning a home tie against Chelsea in the next round. Head Coach Eddie Howe plans to rotate his squad, keeping in mind upcoming fixtures, particularly against Everton. Key players such as Alexander Isak and Bruno Guimaraes are expected to be rested, while players like Will Osula and Miguel Almiron may see starting opportunities. Howe emphasized the importance of the match and the need for a strong performance, despite notable absences. The team will likely feature a mix of established players and those looking to impress, such as Almiron, who has had limited game time this season.
