Newcastle United take on Northampton Town in the second round of the Capital One Cup on Tuesday evening. The Magpies will be hoping to launch a successful cup campaign that will see them bring silverware to St James' Park for the first time since 1969's Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. Steve McClaren will be looking for his first competitive win as the Toon's boss against a side that have won two and lost two, in Skybet League Two so far this season. This will be a test for McClaren - who stated on his arrival at the club that winning one of the two domestic cups was one of his "primary objectives". With that in mind, there's a good chance that United will field a strong team against The Cobblers. The home side will be keen to build a great deal of momentum after an impressive defensive display saw them walk out of Old Trafford with a point on Saturday. Wayne Rooney had a goal disallowed while a number of Man Utd chances came close - but the former England manager's team could have easily won the game themselves as Aleksandar Mitrovic saw a header crash off the bar, while new £13 million signing Florian Thauvin had a Paul Gascoigne moment when he saw a square pass from Papiss Cisse slide just too far in front of him. Thauvin could make his first start after being introduced from the bench at the weekend, while a fellow new signing (who could appear in this list) may also get a start. Here's 5 players that represented both Newcastle United and Northampton Town during their careers.
