Newcastle United have announced that our Carabao Cup quarter final clash with Leicester City will take place on Tuesday, 10th January.
The match – due to kick off at 8pm – has also been selected for TV broadcast on Sky Sports, meaning fans unable to attend the game at St James’ Park will be able to tune in.
The following night, Sky Sports will show Man City’s trip to Southampton on Wednesday, 11th January, with Manchester United’s meeting with Charlton and Nottingham Forest’s match against Wolves not on television.
This means all FIVE of Newcastle’s January fixtures will be shown on TV, including our FA Cup trip to Sheffield Wednesday and Premier League games against Arsenal, Fulham and Crystal Palace.
