Newcastle United vs. Tottenham Hotspur: EFL Cup game time, live blog, and how to watch online

Ah yes. The Carabao Cup. From the heights of the Champions League to the depths of an energy drink, Tottenham Hotspur’s intense run of fixtures continues with a cup tie against Newcastle United. The Toon

are in good form, having won four of their last five fixtures, while Spurs are coming off a solid 3-0 victory against Everton amidst a struggle for consistency.

That search for consistency won’t be helped by the consistency with which Spurs seem to be picking up injuries, with Archie Gray reportedly the latest to be added to the treatment table. Despite the player shortage, though, Thomas Frank has been adamant he plans to rotate in a match that will be a hard-fought battle. Both sides will want to win and increase their chances at securing some silverware, so will be up for the fight.

This is going to be a tough one.

COYS!

Match thread rules

The match thread rules are the same as always. To any visitors coming here for the first time, welcome! We’re glad you’re here! Wipe your feet, mind the gap, and be sure to check out the other pages at this outstanding site. While you’re here, though, we have a few rules and regulations:

• Absolutely no links to illegal streams. They’re bad and they get us in trouble. Violators will be warned or banned.
• We have rules against “relentless negativity.” Nobody likes a Negative Nancy. Don’t knee-jerk and post outlandish or hurtful things just because you’re frustrated.
• Along those lines, outright abuse of players or match officials is also not allowed. It’s fine to say “wow, that was a really bad call,” but it’s NOT okay to direct copious amounts of abuse in the direction of said official over a call you did not like.
• Treat other people in the match thread the way you would want someone else to treat your grandmother. Be nice. This is a community of fans, not an un-moderated message board.
• NO SPIDERS!
• Finally, while we don’t have a rule against profanity, please try and keep the naughty words in check. Also, language that is sexist, racist, transphobic, or homophobic in nature will be swiftly deleted and you will be immediately banned. This is an open, supportive community.

Have fun, and COYS!
