Newcastle United Team News<\/h3>\n

The Newcastle team is ravaged by injuries<\/a> ahead of this fixture.<\/p>\n

Captain, Bruno Guimaraes, Emil Krafth, Lewis Miley, Fabian Schar and Tino Livramento all missed the Everton game and are all expected to be out for the United fixture. Eddie Howe confirmed that Livramento is \u201cgetting closer and closer\u201d to a return, although he recognised that this game may be too soon for him.<\/p>\n

Howe also noted how: \u201cThere’s an illness, potentially, in the squad because Nick Woltemade has gone down ill and we haven’t seen him for a couple of days\u201d; however, he did state that he may be available for the United game.<\/p>\n

Newcastle United Confirmed Lineup<\/h3>\n

Starting XI:<\/strong> Ramsdale, Trippier, Thiaw, Burn, Hall, Joelinton, Tonali, Ramsey, Elanga, Barnes, Gordon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Subs:<\/strong> Pope, Botman, Wissa, Neave, Osula, J. Murphy, Willock, A. Murphy, Shahar.<\/span><\/p>\n

Manchester United Team News<\/h3>\n

Michael Carrick confirmed that Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw were substituted off against Crystal Palace due to illness, rather than injury. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t injury, both weren\u2019t feeling too good, so it\u2019s one of those things really. We\u2019ll see how they are\u201d. Both are in contention for the Newcastle game.<\/p>\n

No updates were provided on Mason Mount, Matthijs de Ligt, Patrick Dorgu or Lisandro Martinez, so we can assume they remain out of action.<\/p>\n
