Is Newcastle v Fulham on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Carabao Cup fixture | OneFootball

Newcastle host Fulham in a fascinating Carabao Cup quarter-final tie this evening, with the Magpies in need of a boost after a damaging derby defeat this weekend.

Eddie Howe’s men were beaten 1-0 by fierce rivals Sunderland, leaving them 12th in the Premier League after an inconsistent first few months of the season.

They’ll face Fulham as they look to reach the semi-finals of the competition they memorably won last year, and have form over Marco Silva’s side, having beaten them 2-1 in the top flight earlier this season.

But Fulham are just two points and one place behind Newcastle in the Premier League, setting up what should be a closely fought tie for a place in the final four.

The hosts will be without Dan Burn after the defender suffered a broken rib and a punctured lung against Sunderland, sustaining the gruesome injury in a 50/50 challenge that will see him absent for at least a month.

He joins existing injury absentees Nick Pope, Kieran Tripper, Sven Botman and Will Osula on the sidelines, but Yoane Wissa may make his first start for the club after substitute appearances in their last two top-flight games.

Fulham will be without Rodrigo Muniz and Ryan Sessegnon, who both have thigh injuries, while Calvin Bassey, Samuel Chukwueze and Alex Iwobi are all unavailable as they are at the Africa Cup of Nations.
