Newcastle United are bracing themselves for a pivotal week in their season, with three crucial matches lined up within seven days that could significantly shape their campaign.

Eddie Howe's side face Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday evening in the Carabao Cup fourth-round tie at home, as they aim to retain the trophy and secure a spot in the quarter-finals. This is followed by a Premier League trip to a struggling West Ham side, a match Newcastle will see as a must-win if they hope to revive their top-five ambitions after a shaky start to their league campaign.

The week concludes with a return to St James' Park, where they'll face Athletic Bilbao in the Champions League, presenting a golden chance to edge closer to securing at least a play-off stage berth.

With injuries to deal with, Howe must decide how best to juggle his side over the next week, with rotation on the cards in key positions. Below are all the injuries both teams have going into Wednesday's game.
