Game On! Manchester United v Newcastle United

Game On at Old Trafford Welcome one and all to our 'Game On' article which this evening will take us through every twist and turn of the third round League Cup (or Capital One Cup as it's known now) ti against Manchester United.

It's not going to be an easy match. Going to Old Trafford is tough whatever team Sir Alex Ferguson ultimately decides to name, but to progress in the competition we'll have to beat the perennial title contenders and cup winners in their own back yard.

The League Cup is generally known as a competition that more teams can win. The feeling is that the big boys don't really give it their full attention and play weakened teams giving other sides more of a chance of progressing. Personally I think it's a bit of a myth and all managers name a team that they believe can win the game on the night whilst balancing the requirements of their squad. Look at the winners and you'll see the same, familiar names popping up...

To get a result we'll need the referee to be fair and unbiased. I hope Manchester born Wythenshawe resident, Anthony Taylor, can do just that. Personally I don't think it's right that a referee can take charge of a game that is five miles away from his house at this level of football but then that is just my opinion. Besides, you never know, he might be a fan of the blue half of Manchester anyway!

As ever team news will be detailed below as and when it becomes available and for a little bit of background on the fixture you can always have a look at my match preview by clicking here.

As mentioned in said preview, the game is live on Sky tonight which is fine for me and the others that aren't going to the game, but those outside of the UK or those that don't have Sky may need a hand so if anyone can find a decent stream of the game then please feel free to share it via the 'comments' section below.

Which just about wraps it up.
