Lascelles has worn the armband and maintained a spot in the starting lineup, although this is merely due to the absence of the injured Sven Botman.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>Read More: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/11\/06\/rio-ferdinand-rasmus-hojlund\/\" target=\"_self\">How Manchester United Can Get Best Out Of \u2018Extraordinary\u2019 Forward<\/a><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In the centre of the midfield three is arguably Newcastle\u2019s most important player in Bruno Guimar\u00e3es. Joelinton has started recent games, alongside one of the most surprising players of the season: Sean Longstaff.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>On the wings, Eddie Howe has played Miguel Almir\u00f3n and Anthony Gordon. The latter of which has also featured down the middle in the EFL Cup, and even in the final 30 minutes against Arsenal &#8211; during which he scored the winner. At striker, Callum Wilson has thrived with Alexander Isak injured.<\/div>\n<p><a id=\"zaZaxpsySRpFHJTtMQf88Q\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1775209557\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'zaZaxpsySRpFHJTtMQf88Q',sig:'0tJf4s-AvXNZ63k2BFsLYKWx5jMDjuf3milMHf4-WNo=',w:'594px',h:'382px',items:'1775209557',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Newcastle Recent Form and Tactics<\/h3>\n<p>Newcastle have just completed back-to-back wins, both against respectable opposition. In midweek, Howe\u2019s side beat Manchester United 3-0 at Old Trafford in the EFL Cup. Significantly, it was an extremely rotated side and yet looked just as competent as the normal eleven. The 45-year-old\u2019s tactics are clearly being implemented effectively throughout the entire squad.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Most recently, the Magpies beat Arsenal 1-0 at St. James\u2019 Park. Not only was the result positive, but the performance backed it up; Mikel Arteta\u2019s side were outplayed, with the Toon Army spurring on Howe\u2019s men. The Gunners were limited to just one shot on target and had an XG of just 0.57. Defensively, Newcastle must be praised, for blocking nine of Arsenal\u2019s shots: the most against the side this season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/11\/05\/aston-villa-new-contract-rory-wilson\/\" target=\"_self\">Aston Villa Now Look To Agree 5-Year Contract With Player \u2018Obsessed With Becoming The Best\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">During the victory, Howe set up his wingers to quickly track back and help the full-backs defend. This created a 2v1 situation for Arsenal\u2019s wide-men, and the threat was successfully neutralised: Bukayo Saka had just three touches inside the box, compared to a league average of eight this season.<\/p>\n<p>Newcastle and Dortmund faced each other in their most recent Champions League fixture, on October 25. The match ended 1-0 in favour of Edin Terzi\u0107 and his charges. A draw was perhaps more deserved, however, with Wilson and Gordon both hitting the woodwork in the final 10 minutes and three big chances being missed throughout the match.<\/p>\n<h3>Newcastle Injuries to Consider<\/h3>\n<p>The victory at the weekend may be slightly overshadowed by yet another first-team injury. Burn was substituted at half-time with a <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/11\/07\/newcastle-united-dan-burn-injury\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">spinal injury<\/a> that he obtained earlier in the game.\u00a0 Howe has now revealed that he will be facing &#8220;a couple of months out&#8221;. The manager followed this up by explaining how the defender has been <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/nufc\/status\/1721582521035390979?s=46&amp;t=3SIZBvLgenVQnMCCNIdt8Q\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u201cgigantic\u201d<\/a> for the side this season, and that it will be a \u201chuge blow\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This unfortunately comes less than a week after Newcastle&#8217;s second-choice left-back, Matt Targett, picked up a hamstring injury. The English manager stated that the 28-year-old will <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/FabrizioRomano\/status\/1721590719431737354?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">&#8220;definitely be out for around three months&#8221;<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Tino Livramento replaced Burn against Arsenal; the 20-year-old played at right-back with Trippier moving to the left-hand side. Following a man-of-the-match performance in the EFL Cup, it seems likely that he will feature against Dortmund.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Aside from the latest injuries, the Magpies face an abundance of unavailable players. To exacerbate the loss of the two left-backs, fellow defender Botman remains out for an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12692651\/Newcastle-injury-blow-Eddie-Howe-Sven-Botman.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">unknown period of time.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>On the wings, Jacob Murphy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/sport\/football\/dan-burn-newcastle-jacob-murphy-burn-eddie-howe-b2441959.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">re-injured his shoulder<\/a> against Arsenal, and Harvey Barnes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/football\/66959524\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">remains out until the New Year<\/a>. Up front, Isak is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chroniclelive.co.uk\/sport\/football\/football-news\/newcastle-dealt-alexander-isak-injury-28015340\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">out for a few weeks<\/a> but fortunately, Wilson is fit. Sandro Tonali is of course <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skysports.com\/football\/news\/11678\/12992269\/sandro-tonali-newcastle-midfielder-to-be-banned-from-football-for-10-months-after-breaching-betting-rules#:~:text=Sandro%20Tonali%3A%20Newcastle%20midfielder%20to,rules%20%7C%20Football%20News%20%7C%20Sky%20Sports\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">suspended<\/a> for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n<p>Despite a copious amount of injuries, it is not expected that Newcastle&#8217;s form will dip too significantly.
