Carabao Cup draw: Man Utd host Newcastle | West Ham to play Arsenal

Manchester United will host Newcastle in a rematch of last season’s final in the pick of the Carabao Cup fourth-round ties as the holders landed an astonishing 12th home cup tie in a row

Newcastle, beaten 2-0 by United in last season’s final, secured their progression after Alexander Isak’s second-half effort at St James’ Park sank eight-time winners Manchester City.

Incredibly, the draw marked the 12th successive time in a domestic cup competition where Manchester United have been drawn at home – a run which dates back to March 2021 and is believed to be a new record in British football history.

Liverpool will play away at Bournemouth in the fourth round after they hit back to beat Leicester 3-1 at Anfield.

Cody Gakpo equalised for Liverpool in the second half after Kasey McAteer had given Leicester an early lead and further goals from Dominik Szoboszlai and Jota sent the nine-time winners through.
