NEWCASTLE United's home derby with Sunderland has been switched to a Sunday and handed anew kick-off time.

However, the fixture will have to be changed if Newcastle can turn around their 2-0 Carabao Cup deficit against Man City next week.

If they can't and City go through to the Wembley final, the Tyne-Wear derby will kick off at 12pm and be screened on Sky Sports on Sunday, March 22.
