THE TEAM NEWS
NEWCASTLE
Sven Botman and Alexander Isak could be available, although the latter hasn't trained at the time of writing. Howe will be reluctant to risk the pair, but he sounded more positive regarding Joelinton's chances of returning to the starting XI.
Anthony Gordon has completed his suspension and Sandro Tonali is also available, but Howe may choose to bring the him out of the spotlight given off-the-matters surround the Italian midfielder.
PREDICTED XI (4-3-3): Pope, Trippier, Lascelles, Schar, Burn; Longstaff, Guimaraes, Joelinton; Almiron, Wilson, Gordon
UNAVAILABLE: Miley (Illness), Willock (Fitness), Barnes (Injured), Gordon (Suspended)
QUESTIONABLE: Botman (Injured), Joelinton (Fitness), Isak (Injured)
CRYSTAL PALACE
A number of Roy Hodgson's injured players have recovered with Joel Ward, Naouirou Ahamada, Matheus Franca, Jefferson Lerma and Cheick Doucoure now available for selection.
James Tomkins and Jeffrey Schlupp, however, will miss out.
PREDICTED XI (4-3-3): Johnstone; Ward, Andersen, Guehi, Mitchell; Lerma, Hughes, Doucoure; Ayew, Mateta, Edouard
UNAVAILABLE: Henderson (Injured), Tomkins (Injured), Schlupp (Injured), Olise (Injured), Eze (Injured)
QUESTIONABLE: Ferguson (Fitness)
THE PREDICTION
Only Man City and Arsenal - last season's top two in the Premier League - have conceded fewer goals than Crystal Palace so far in the division, and the Eagles now go up against a Newcastle side who have kept clean sheets in five of their last seven games in all competitions. With that in mind, a goalfest does not seem likely at St. James' Park with defences very much on top, so siding against both teams scoring would appear to be a sensible play in the betting markets.
TIP: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE – NO
