Erik ten Hag's side heads to Rodney Parade on Sunday knowing they will be in for a trademark lower league atmosphere in South Wales. As for United, they will be hopeful of avoiding one of the biggest giant killings of this year's competition. Believe me, you have to motivate yourself like this is the game of your life. Ten Hag knows the pressure will seriously ramp up on him if his team are knocked out of the cup by Newport. United have already been knocked out of the Champions League and Carabao Cup early doors and are dangerously adrift of the top four in the Premier League.
