West Brom learn date for Newcastle Carabao Cup trip
The Baggies were drawn against the Magpies earlier this week.
Albion have learned the date of their Carabao Cup trip to Newcastle.
The Baggies will travel to face the Magpies in the second round on Wednesday, August 26, with a 7.45pm kick-off.
Tickets will be on sale from Monday for what will be their first visit to St James’s Park with supporters permitted to attend since 2018.
James Morrison’s team beat Rotherham 4-1 last weekend to become the first Baggies team in four years to progress beyond the first round of the competition.
Albion last visited Newcastle in the Premier League in December, 2020 but fans were not allowed to attend due to lockdown restrictions during the pandemic.
Their most recent visit with supporters in attendance came in April, 2018. Matt Phillips got the only goal in a 1-0 win.
