This event is for the upcoming EFL Cup (Carabao Cup) game, scheduled for Wednesday, August 26, 2026 between Newcastle United FC and West Bromwich Albion FC.
Newcastle United enter this Carabao Cup second-round clash at St James’ Park as clear favorites after a resilient 2-2 Premier League draw with Liverpool in their season opener under new manager Matthias Jaissle. Despite key absences including captain Dan Burn (ankle), Joelinton (groin), and Tino Livramento (calf), the Magpies retain superior squad depth and home advantage against a Championship side. West Brom arrive in strong form after five straight wins, including their opening two league victories and a first-round cup triumph, but face a significant step up in competition level and travel to a venue where Newcastle hold a strong historical record. Trader pricing reflects the Premier League visitors’ overall quality edge and the challenges for an underdog side even with momentum.
