"Starting with the hosts, suffering last-gasp heartbreak at home against Tottenham on Tuesday night as they eventually had to settle for a pulsating 2-2 stalemate at St. James' Park, Newcastle are seeking an immediate response here. Missing out on the chance to skyrocket their way into the top-half of the Premier League table, the former Bournemouth boss is still searching for some crucial stability."
"Yet to make his Newcastle debut and enduring a real injury crisis since arriving on Tyneside, Howe's men will once again be without summer recruit Yoane Wissa. Likewise, veteran defender Kieran Trippier remains a major doubt with a hamstring issue. Both coming off the bench and finding the net against Tottenham earlier in the week, the duo of England international Anthony Gordon and skipper Bruno Guimaraes will should be handed full recalls."
Newcastle aim for an immediate Premier League response at St. James' Park after drawing 2-2 with Tottenham and losing 2-1 at Marseille in the Champions League. The Magpies have three wins in their last seven matches but remain unbeaten in seven home games (six wins, one draw). Injuries persist, with Yoane Wissa unavailable and Kieran Trippier doubtful, while Anthony Gordon and Bruno Guimaraes are expected to return to the starting lineup and Nick Woltemade leads the attack. Burnley face a tough fight to retain top-flight status after a 1-0 home defeat to Crystal Palace and ongoing scoring issues.
