Eddie Howe’s Newcastle will come into the third-round weekend of the FA Cup in excellent form after winning six on the bounce across all competitions.

Confidence will be sky high within the camp following an excellent 2-0 win over Arsenal in midweek in the first leg of their EFL Cup semi-final.

However, attentions turn to the visit of third tier Bromley on Sunday. The League Two side have won three of their last five matches, but they will be huge underdogs for the trip to St. James’ Park.

Newcastle vs. Bromley Prediction
