Newcastle United will travel to Hilborough to take on Sheffield Wednesday in an FA Cup third round fixture on Saturday. The hosts enter this stage of the competition having already overcome Morecambe and Mansfield Town in the previous rounds, while the Premier League outfit earned a direct entry. Sheffield Wednesday are heading into the match on the back of a 5-0 Football League One win over Cambridge United on Monday, while the visitors played out a goalless draw against Arsenal in the English top flight, two days later. Eddie Howe’s side are currently occupying third spot in the Premier League standings, having collected 35 points from 18 games, nine adrift of the leaders Arsenal. The Owls, on the other hand, are sitting at the second position in the English second tier standings, with 52 points to their name from 25 matches, four points behind Plymouth Argyle, at the summit. 

Sheffield Wednesday began their FA Cup campaign with a 2-0 win over Morecambe at the beginning of November, before defeating fourth-tier side Mansfield Town 2-1 to book a meeting with Premier League outfit Newcastle United in the third round match. The Owls have been in stunning form of late, having won each of their last three games. Last time out, Darren Moore’s side netted five times against Cambridge United without reply, courtesy of a hat-trick by Josh Windass and Michael Smith’s double. 

Newcastle United, on the other hand, are undefeated in their last 15 competitive games across all competitions and that includes 10 victories. Their impressive run has been largely due to a solid defence, which has conceded just 11 goals in 18 Premier League games, fewer than any other team in the English top tier. The Magpies resumed competitive action following the World cup break, with a 1-0 home win over Bournemouth to enter the EFL Cup last eight stage, before thrashing Leicester 3-0 on the boxing Day, courtesy of goals from Chris Wood, Miguel Almiron and Joelinton. Then back-to-back goalless draws to Leeds United and Arsenal.
