Eddie Howe is desperate to break new ground as he attempts to guide Newcastle into the Carabao Cup semi-finals.

The Magpies booked their place in the last eight with a hard-fought 1-0 fourth-round victory over Howe’s former club Bournemouth at St James’ Park on Tuesday evening to keep alive their hopes of winning a first domestic trophy since 1955.
