Pep Guardiola: I will always stand up for human beings who are suffering
Manchester City face Newcastle United in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-finals tonight, with Pep Guardiola ’s side already halfway to the final as they welcome the Magpies.
City’s deserved 2-0 win over Newcastle three weeks ago means that they have one foot in the final as Eddie Howe ’s men travel to the Etihad, with the Magpies having plenty to do if they want to keep up their defence of the League Cup .
The hosts have struggled to string together a run of solid performances since the first leg though, with the loss to Man Utd and recent draw to Tottenham showing that they can be vulnerable against the better sides.
However, Newcastle have been struggling even more since last month, with the Magpies losing to Villa and Liverpool recently, and they’ll have to produce a superb performance if they want to make it to Wembley for the second year running.
