The possibilities of Newcastle United in the FA Cup are now really opening up.
A 3-1 win over Bromley in the third round, followed up by a 3-2 success at Birmingham on Saturday night.
Newcastle United did a really professional job on the League One runaway leaders after the home side took a shock early lead.
That 3-2 victory for Eddie Howe’s side then sees them looking forward to the FA Cup fifth round draw.
That fifth round draw will be made live on BBC’s ‘The One Show’ on Monday (10 February 2025), taking place at around 7.10pm.
Now guaranteed a place in the last 16, Newcastle United are ball number 9.
