However, a spanner was immediately thrown into the works with the draw throwing up reigning Premier League champions and 8-time League Cup winners Manchester City.
Abu Dhabi-owned City, given the strength of their squad and ability to rotate and still field a world class XI, have been dominant in this tournament in recent years, lifting the trophy in 2013/14, 2015/16, 2017/18, 2018/19, 2019/20, and 2020/21.
Newcastle will likely require a performance akin to the 8-0 drubbing of Sheffield United at the weekend if they’re to progress to Round 4 and hopefully an easier tie.
