As Newcastle United find themselves on the brink of history against Manchester United in the Carabao Cup Final, we have taken the difficult decision to call their predicted lineup.
With the Magpies having the chance to end their 68-year trophy drought, we expect Eddie Howe to just make 2 changes from the side that lined up against Liverpool in their latest 2-0 defeat.
Newcastle United predicted lineup vs Manchester United
Considering Nick Pope finds him suspended after his mindless sending off against Jurgen Klopp’s men, Loris Karius seems set for a start in our Newcastle predicted lineup against Manchester United.
After all, the German goalkeeper reportedly received a phone call from Eddie Howe about whether he would be open to starting the encounter.
At right-back, Kieran Trippier, who has warned his teammates not to be solely focused on the in-form Marcus Rashford seems a nailed-on starter at Wembley Stadium.
At centre-back, the unbreakable duo of Fabian Schar and Sven Botman are unlikely to be separated in our Newcastle predicted lineup against Manchester United for the big final.
The same goes for Dan Burn, who is almost guaranteed to start at left-back.

In midfield, Sean Longstaff seems a definite starter as well, gaining plaudits from Michael Dawson for how increasingly ‘influential’ he has become via Sky Sports News.
In front of him, with Joe Willock still out of action due to injury, Joelinton is set to start proceedings.
The good news for Newcastle fans is that the ‘magic’ Bruno Guimaraes is likely to play against Manchester United, after serving his suspension.
Up front, we expect the same front 3 of Miguel Almiron, Alexander Isak and Allan Saint-Maximin to keep their places in the team.
