Here is our Newcastle United predicted lineup for the clash against Tomas Frank\u2019s Brentford who have taken an impressive nineteen points from a possible twenty-two at home so far this season.<\/p>\n
Newcastle United have now failed to win in any of their last three Premier League games and head to Brentford\u2019s Gtech Community Stadium this weekend in the hope of returning to winning ways. Both teams are midtable and level on points. A win keeps your focus on a very realistic chance of staying around the qualifying spots for Europe whereas a defeat could mean dropping into the bottom half of the table.<\/p>\n

Eddie Howe was gutted and frustrated when his team conceded an injury-time equaliser against Crystal Palace in their last visit to London. But in contrast, the point gained against Liverpool a few days later left the Toon Army completely exhilarated in witnessing their team\u2019s never-say-die attitude when sharing six goals with top-of-the-table Liverpool.<\/p>\n The experience of the returning Dan Burn alongside the unlikely goalscorer Fabian Schar will serve Newcastle well, they have a great recent record against Brentford. Tino Livramento and Lewis Hall will again occupy the full-back roles. A midfield three of Sandro Tonali, Bruno Guimaraes and Joelinton against Liverpool saw a good mix of plenty of energy, excellent passing ability and most of all their creativity. All three are capable of the unexpected. The constant movement of Alexander Isak as their focal point in attack is so significant for Newcastle and his devastating finish against Liverpool was a classic example of how explosive he can be.<\/p>\n Support from the wide areas is the key to Newcastle scoring more regularly. Against Liverpool, it was Anthony Gordon and Jacob Murphy on either side. If there is to be a change in the front three, I can see Harvey Barnes replacing Jacob Murphy on the right-hand side.<\/p>\n Eddie Howe did not make a change in the game against Liverpool until fifteen minutes before the end, suggesting he was happy with his team\u2019s performance, but managers will always guard against a heavy workload for any individual. Alexander Isak was a fitness doubt before the Liverpool game, but he showed his quality with a goal of the season contender meaning that Callum Wilson has to be even more patient for his chance to impress. Kieran Trippier, Sven Botman, Jamaal Lascelles and Emil Krafth won\u2019t be considered.<\/p>\n Sean Longstaff, Calum Wilson and Joe Willock all came on for the last few minutes so there\u2019s a possibility all three will get more game time. Eddie Howe will be more proactive when changing his side against Brentford, he\u2019ll need more energy in his team for the last thirty minutes or so.<\/p>\nNewcastle United Predicted Lineup vs Brentford For December 7<\/h2>\n
