"Guimaraes was substituted in Newcastle's 3-0 win over PSV in the Champions League on Wednesday after colliding with visiting goalkeeper Matej Kovar in the first half. The Brazilian was replaced by Lewis Miley in first-half stoppage time with an apparent issue with his ankle, which could be a huge blow for the Magpies ahead of this weekend. In the Premier League this season, no player has scored more goals (eight), won more tackles (31) or created more chances (32) for Newcastle than Guimaraes."
"Howe did not officially rule out the 28-year-old from featuring against Unai Emery's title chasers. "We hope it is not serious. The extent of the injury is still unknown. He was reasonably positive after the game," Howe said. "He is the guy that will never rule anything out. We are going to give him every chance for this weekend. We will try and make the right decision with Bruno. He is a pivotal player.""
