Alan Pardew fielded a strong lineup to get to this stage of the Capital One Cup by beating Leeds in the last round, and will do so again for the visit of Manchester City here.
There could be a few changes from the weekend, though, with the likes of Loic Remy and Hatem Ben Arfa unlikely to feature so soon after the Sunderland game.
Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa returns from suspension and could start in central defence.
