"Manchester City will host Carabao Cup holders Newcastle United in a semi-final second leg at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday night with kick-off scheduled for 8pm. Before a ball is kicked, both teams will know their opposition at the showpiece Wembley final on Sunday March 22, 2026. Arsenal or Chelsea will be waiting, as the London teams clash on Tuesday evening, with Arsenal at home holding a slender 3-2 lead from the first leg."
"Manchester City had to settle for a draw after leading 2-0 against Tottenham at the weekend, which struck a blow to their title hopes. A 2-0 win over Newcastle in the first leg means they are strong favourites to make the Carabao Cup final, having last won it back in 2021. The stats don't read well for Newcastle, either, as Manchester City have progressed from each of their last six semi-final appearances in this competition, going on to lift the trophy on each occasion."
Manchester City host Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup semi-final second leg at the Etihad with kick-off at 8pm, carrying a 2-0 first-leg advantage. The Wembley final opponent will be either Arsenal or Chelsea, with Arsenal holding a 3-2 lead from the first leg. VIP and general tickets remain available through Seat Unique at various price points.

Newcastle travel in large numbers and will defend their trophy. Manchester City will be without Marc Guehi; January signings Antoine Semenyo and Rayan Cherki featured in the first-leg win.
