Two clubs hoping to reignite their season meet at Old Trafford as Manchester United and Newcastle clash in the Carabao Cup fourth round.
Man United, reeling from their dispiriting defeat in the Manchester derby at the weekend, have not made the strides fans were hoping for in Erik ten Hag's second season. Their supporters will have expected the Dutchman to steer the club closer to their cross-town rivals, but after being hammered 3-0 at home on Sunday, there's cause for concern that not enough progress has been made.
Newcastle are somewhat in the same boat, sitting sixth in the Premier League table and falling to a disappointing home defeat to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League last week. The Magpies stormed their way to a top four place last season, and while they've shown flashes of last season's spark, it's been more of an up and down campaign so far.
Both teams, in fairness, have been bereft with injuries and other squad constraints to key players. The Carabao Cup is a great equaliser, however, and progression through to the next round past a strong opponent could be a positive result on which to build further success moving forward.

What time does Man United vs Newcastle kick off?
This EFL Cup fourth round match at Old Trafford kicks off on Wednesday, November 1 at 8:15 p.m. local time in Manchester.
Here's how that time translates across some of the major territories around the globe.
(Be advised, the UK has transitioned back to GMT one week before the United States hits Daylight Savings, and therefore kickoff times are slightly awry from their usual slot, as the time differences are somewhat skewed. For example, the east coast of the United States and Canada is usually five hours earlier than the UK, but for this one week they are four hours apart.)

Man United vs Newcastle lineups, team news
Manchester United have a long injury list to contend with, as do their counterparts in this match, although Casemiro is back in to captain the side after suffering a setback while on international duty with Brazil.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka returns to the bench, although fellow defender Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia and Luke Shaw remain out. Sergio Reguilon came off the bench in the past few matches and gets a start, with Mason Mount, Alejandro Garnacho and Hannibal also getting their chances to shine.
Man United starting lineup (4-2-3-1): 24. Andre Onana (GK) — 20. Diogo Dalot, 2. Victor Lindelof, 5. Harry Maguire, 15. Sergio Reguilon — 7. Mason Mount, 18. Casemiro, 46. Hannibal — 21. Antony, 9. Anthony Martial, 17. Alejandro Garnacho.
This match is the first of a 10-month ban for key Newcastle midfield acquisition Sandro Tonali after he committed gambling offences.
Eddie Howe is also without defender Sven Botman and in-form striker Alexander Isak. The former is still recovering from a knee problem, while the latter is out until at least the November international break with a groin issue.
Other injury absences include Jacob Murphy, Harvey Barnes, and Elliot Anderson all of whom will miss at least the majority of November, with Anderson out until the new year thanks to a back injury.
