Howe Makes Lone Change In Our Predicted Team For Palace Despite Bruno Revelation



Newcastle are back at it tomorrow evening with a tough match at Crystal Palace. Eddie Howe will likely alter his preferred eleven despite the revelation Bruno will be available.

Craig Hope is reporting on Twitter that the influential midfielder has recovered enough to make the trip to Selhurst Park which is outstanding news. Though Howe will most likely proceed with caution and save him as an impact sub.

Joelinton will likely slot into the midfield three with Sean Longstaff sitting deep. Howe’s decision could be down to starting either Allan Saint-Maximin or Alexander Isak with a potential change of shape.

I suspect Howe will go with Saint-Maximin in the familiar 4-3-3. The Frenchman was an automatic starter prior to his hamstring injury in August. Howe initially went with Saint-Maximin after Bruno’s removal against Fulham.

This is the team I am predicting Howe will name tomorrow with the lone, somewhat forced change. Isak and Guimaraes can potentially get a lengthy cameo depending on how the night unfolds.


Howe did throw out a scenario during his press conference this morning which alluded to Isak playing on the left. Howe stated Alex’s versatility was a primary factor in his capture and that he can play on the left; though he admitted it wasn’t his best position.

Returning Saint-Maximin back to the starting eleven could reignite the Frenchman, who hasn’t had much of an impact since returning from his injury. A league start could be just what he needs to rediscover his form, which would be a timely boost for the second half of the season.

    Jazzy, if it was up to me you would have a gold plated Season ticket,
    Remember that night game, and you drove back home in that horrendous gale.
    Some fans definitely more deserving.

    I see Regan and ROM are behaving impeccably as usual. So don’t encourage them into bad behavior NYmag.
    NYmag are you going to try and get to the final if we get through.
    If we club together and get a box next to Sparkly, his good would that be.
    Have you renewed your passport.

    Carltoon,

    I’ve put my passport application in….whether I’ll get it in time and whether we’ll get there is still up in the air (excuse the pun)…I have my fingers crossed on both accounts 🙂

    Bruno Guimaraes is set to hand Newcastle United a massive boost by making himself available for this weekend’s trip to Crystal Palace after initial reports he could be out for more than a month with an ankle injury.

    The Gypsy Kings are French and come from around the Sete/Montpellier area of southern France.

    I’ve seen them play a couple of times at free concerts in the city of Carcassonne in France. Absolutely tremendous nights. On one occasion the wife nearly fell into the Canal du Midi after the concert.
