Newcastle Stars Injured Before Man City Clash
1 Feb
Summary
- Lewis Miley and Sven Botman are injured and may miss the Man City semi-final.
- Both players were sidelined for the recent Liverpool match due to their injuries.
- Bruno Guimaraes has a chance to return but is not fully confirmed fit.

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has confirmed that Lewis Miley and Sven Botman are dealing with injuries. These setbacks cast doubt on their availability for the upcoming Carabao Cup semi-final tie against Manchester City. The duo was notably absent from the field during Newcastle's recent 4-1 defeat at Anfield against Liverpool, having been named on the bench.
Howe explained that Botman experienced a tight thigh, leading to advice against his participation, while Miley was unable to bend his knee sufficiently to be deemed fit. Despite these concerns, Howe indicated that both players have the best chance among the currently unavailable squad members to recover in time for Wednesday's semi-final. Additionally, captain Bruno Guimaraes is being assessed for an ankle knock, with a possibility of his return, though not guaranteed.
