Newcastle United boss Steve Bruce stuck to his vow to field a strong side in the League Cup against Burnley - but did not risk Allan Saint-Maximin from the start against Burnley.
Bruce went with Freddie Woodman between the posts while Sean Longstaff started the game with Ryan Fraser, Joelinton and Dwight Gayle shaping the attack.
Skipper Jamaal Lascelles also started while there were places for Javier Manquillo and Ciaran Clark in the starting line-up.
Bruce had Saint-Maximin, Miguel Almiron and Joe Willock on the bench as back-up in the event the tie does not go according to plan.
Returning Burnley man Aaron Lennon started for the visitors, with Nathan Collins and Wayne Hennessey made debuts for the Clarets.
Before the game Bruce said: "We will make changes tonight - we have to for several reasons.
"We have a squad for a reason, but we need to keep them all happy and some of them need games to keep them match fit and to stake a claim for the weekend and the Premier League games to come.
"But, make no mistake, the starting XI and bench will be strong and will be capable of getting through to the next stage."
UNITED: Woodman, Manquillo, Krafth, Lascelles, Clark, Lewis, Sean Longstaff, Hendrick, Fraser, Joelinton, Gayle
Subs: Gillespie, M Longstaff, Murphy, Almiron, Willock, Saint-Maxmin, Schar.
