Kieran Trippier admits Newcastle United must be 'prepared' for rivals hoping to frustrate them at St James' Park out of 'respect' for the Magpies form. Eddie Howe's side earned a narrow home win over Bournemouth on Tuesday night to book their place in the last eight of the Carabao Cup.
Adam Smith's second-half own goal settled the tie as the Cherries became the latest team bidding to disrupt Newcastle's momentum. Liverpool and Manchester City are the only sides to pick up wins on Tyneside since Howe's appointment last November.
Bournemouth are the last side to leave St James' Park without tasting defeat, having ground out a 1-1 draw in the Premier League clash in September. Alexander Isak netted his first home goal in black-and-white from the penalty spot, five minutes after Philip Billing opened the scoring.
