Eddie Howe will be forced into at least one change for Sunday’s clash against Wolves at St. James’ Park with the integral Joelinton facing a two-match ban. There could be other changes on the horizon after Howe made three in last weekend’s defeat at Manchester City.
Fabian Schar is back in contention after being sidelined through the concussion protocol. He faces a fight to return with captain Jamaal Lascelles’s solid showing against the defending champions.
I suspect Schar will keep his place though would not be completely surprised to see Jamaal take the armband tomorrow. However, I do see one other potential change at the back with Matt Targett making his return for Dan Burn at left-back.
All that being said, this is the team I suspect Howe will name. It has three changes from the Citizens with Schar returning, Joe Willock in for Joelinton, and Targett getting a chance on the left.
During his press conference on Friday, Howe stated Alexander Isak was not ready for a full 90 minutes. While that doesn’t rule out a start, he may continue as an impact sub until he is fully fit.
That may also be the role for Allan Saint-Maximin despite impressing in a run of starts. Anthony Gordon made his full debut last weekend and now he may get his first start in front of the home faithful.
There are plenty of options with only Emil Krafth and Harrison Ashby out injured that we know of. Howe can chop and change to try and get the performance needed to spur the Magpies back to victory.

My missus was a non believer in ET (not the movie before anyone tries to have a joke lol) – After watching moment of contact, it blew her away. I have always had a very strong belief that the truth is out there re ETs but after watching moment of truth we were both gob smacked. Definitely not a hoax

We’ll agree to differ respectfully
From what I can see over here, Irish nufc fans are behind Lineker and bemused the nufc shoud be only one of two clubs supporting the beeb ad the govt
I wonder why that is?

Comment #99At risk of getting political on here, I’ve got to say completely agree with what he tweeted what is being said is similar to 1930’s Germany. And let’s face it fir those in the government who are complaining, their families are of foreign descent and who knows if they originally came here by small boats or not. But if didn’t they wouid not be in positions they are in now. Regardless of any of that though, free speech in this country if we like what is said or not, so should just put up with it and if don’t like it sweep under carpet
So proud of all bbc staff standing strong for each other and not working over this
On more real note let’s just make sure we win tomorrow

Comment #106I remember 5yrs ago our plane was about to land at Rhodes Airport and a circular bright light caught my attention, I was gobsmacked when it started to zigzag just above the airport then hovered for about 30 secs then just shot up into a clear sky faster than any thing I’d witnessed before…I told my partner…she just smiled and just before I disembarked I told one of the staff and all I got was a smile and “have a nice holiday”…..unbelievable Jeff

Comment #116Fenham,
There are hundreds of videos on Youtube that cover incidents like the one in Brazil, that is not an isolated event , it depends how interested you are in the subject, and ive got to say i am an anorak as far as this topic is concerned, too many intelligent people involved in cover ups over the years are now coming forward to give their accounts on what the foot is actually going on, governments worldwide have been dishonest to the public ever since the Roswell incident and now it`s all being proved without any shadow of doubt.
There will always be sceptics and that is fair enough, it is their right, but scepticm doesn`t mean reality.

Comment #119Clint we are but we are not illegally entering a country and then refusing to obeying the countries laws and cultures.
I have no hassle with people looking for asylum who want to contribute to the society of the country they I have fled to at all.
But I do have issues with bus loads of men aged between 18/40 coming into countries illegally without papers who refuse work haraas and rape woman have no interest in becoming integrated in that countries society.
All they want is the free benefits and to do what they want.
