Stand-in Newcastle United bosses John Carver and Steve Stone have decided upon a 4-3-3 formation that uses frontmen Adam Armstrong, Emmanuel Riviere and Remy Cabella as they travel to Leicester City in the FA Cup's all-Premier League tie this afternoon.
United's forwards will be backed by a three-man midfield that features youngster Haris Vuckic and the industrious legs of Vurnon Anita and Cheick Tiote.
Nigel Pearson is clearly taking the competition seriously as he also starts with three strikers in the shape of David Nugent, Tom Lawrence and Leonardo Ulloa.
In midfield, the Foxes will be driven by the experienced Esteban Cambiasso who sits alongside Matty James and Anthony Knockaert.
Leicester City: Hamer; De Laet, Morgan, Moore, Konchesky, Cambiasso, James, Knockaert, Nugent, Lawrence, Ulloa
Newcastle United: Alnwick; Santon, Williamson, Dummett, Haidara, Anita, Tiote, Vuckic, Armstrong, Riviere, Cabella
