Joe Buck previews Newcastle United's FA Cup Third Round match against Bromley at St James' Park

Transcript

00:00Newcastle United are back in action at St. James' Park after three games away from home of course.

00:05Three wins in that time over Manchester United Tottenham and Arsenal mean they enter this game in really good form.

00:10And in a game they will be expecting to win of course.

00:13League 2 opposition today in the form of Bromley.

00:15This is the first time the two sides have ever met.

00:17The first time Bromley have ever played a Premier League team.

00:19And the first time ever Bromley were in the third round of the FA Cup.

00:22So it's going to be a brilliant day for that club, their fans.

00:25It's a fantastic place for them to come play football.

00:29And of course Newcastle United will welcome them.

00:31Andy Woodman, the Bromley head coach, obviously spent time as a goalkeeping coach here.

00:34Spent a good few years as a goalkeeping coach here.

00:36So it'll be a big day for all them.

00:37But Newcastle United have got a professional job to do and they will hope to get their job done.

00:42And without minimal of fuss they can get themselves into the fourth round draw.

00:45Of course they won't underestimate Bromley. It's all about mentality.

00:47Eddie Howard warned about the mentality and he will make changes.

00:51They've had three really tough games away from home.

00:54Three tiring games, especially that Arsenal game.

00:57Although they did go to 5-0 formation.

00:59You could tell they were tired and physically exhausted.

01:01Of course they got the win and they'll be happy with that.

01:03But yes, there's going to need rotation with the game against Wolves just three days away.

01:07Back here at St James' Park in the Premier League.

01:09Eddie Howard will rotate.

01:10I don't expect Alexander Isak or Sven Botman to get any minutes if they're on the bench.

01:14Hopefully they're not required.

01:16If they are required then Newcastle are in trouble basically.

01:22Ten changes maybe, maybe eleven.

01:24On my predicted eleven for Shields Gazette, I think I went with ten changes.

01:27Of course Joe Willock, I think is the only one who might stay in with Miley and Longstaff in the midfield alongside him.

01:32I think Fabian Scheher might come back. He's missed the last couple of games.

01:34But other than that, it'll be interesting to see what kind of team Eddie Howard names.

01:37I think Will Osula will get time up front. It'll be interesting to see how he goes.

01:40He obviously played against Wimbledon.

01:41Did alright for all intents and purposes.

01:43Did well against Wimbledon.

01:44And again, another League 2 opposition here we'll be hoping to showcase again his talents.

01:48Because he hasn't really had much opportunity to do that.

01:50And obviously Alexander Isak has been in brilliant form.

01:52But yeah, it'll be a good opportunity to see Will Osula, Lewis Miley play.

01:55He hasn't made a start since he got injured back almost ten months ago.

01:59So it'll be good to see him playing.

02:00Packed out, seen Javis Park, ready for some FA Cup action.
