Match facts
- Newcastle are unbeaten in their last six games vs. Birmingham (W4, D2).
- The last time the Toons hosted their FA Cup rivals, they won 4-0 to make it three straight home wins vs. Birmingham.
- The Blues have won only once vs. Newcastle in their 13 meetings, but that was coincidentally in an FA Cup replay.
- Gianfranco Zola’s boys are without a win in six games.
Rafael Benitez must secure progression with a seriously depleted squad
Newcastle head into this fixture off the back of a tricky 2-1 win over Brentford, but their results have been mixed as of late. Before the Toons’ recent win, they were without a win for two consecutive games and last two of their last four home ties.
Rafael Benitez can secure progression for his side against Birmingham, having drawn the first game 1-1. Unfortunately, a serious selection headache looks to jeopardize their odds at winning.
Up to 11 players could miss out on this FA Cup game. Gamez, Aarons, Mitrovic, Anita, Gayle, Hayden are injured. Diame, Mbemba, Atsu are all away at the African Cup of Nations; whilst Sammy Ameobi, Jamie Sterry are cup-tied.
Birmingham must take advantage of this and secure victory, as Gianfranco Zola is under pressure. The Chelsea legend took over the club when they were in 7th, but has seen them drop to 12th after picking up only two points from five games.
