Sutton's predictions v The Wellermen's Jonny Stewart

Key Highlights

• The exact score earns 40 points. Some of Jonny's earliest memories as a fan were the FA Cup finals that Newcastle lost in 1998 and 1999, but he was finally able to celebrate a trophy when the Magpies won the Carabao Cup in March.

• There were a couple of Liverpool fans in there but more than 100 Newcastle fans were crammed into it.
• It was brilliant."I'd bought a Dan Burn Carabao Cup final shirt in the run-up to the game because I thought, if we win, it is going to mean so much having the ultimate local lad on the back of my jersey.

• It really doesn't get much better than that."Chris Sutton and Jonny Stewart were speaking to BBC Sport's Chris Bevan.

The key to how this game goes is what they do without Bruno Fernandes, and how they are going to cope without him. You look around Ruben Amorim's squad and he does not seem to have a lot of leaders in there. It will be interesting to see if Amorim plays centre-back Lisandro Martinez in that holding midfield role, the same job he did when he came on.
