Newcastle United beat Rayo Vallecano 2-1 in a friendly over the weekend courtesy of goals from Sean Longstaff and Chris Wood. They haven't progressed past the quarter-finals of the League Cup since the 1975-76 season but Howe's side definitely look like they have what it takes to win some silverware this term.
Meanwhile, Bournemouth beat Everton 4-1 to book their berth in the round of 16. The Cherries seemed to be in good shape heading into the World Cup break. They picked up back-to-back dominant victories against Everton.
They beat the Goodies 4-1 in the League Cup before thrashing them 3-0 in the Premier League. Suffice it to say, Howe's former side will be raring to go out and prove a point against the Magpies on Tuesday night.

Newcastle United vs Bournemouth Prediction
Newcastle United will look to extend their unbeaten run after getting off to a brilliant start to the 2022-23 season. They are undefeated on home soil this term and should feel confident about getting the better of Bournemouth on Tuesday night.
The Cherries are also in good form, but they have a relegation battle to fight and are unlikely to pay as much attention to a League Cup encounter as the Magpies can afford to. As such, we expect Newcastle United to pick up the win.
