Team news: January signing Kieran Trippier is a doubt for Newcastle‘s Premier League clash with Aston Villa on Sunday.
The England full-back suffered a calf injury during Tuesday’s win over Everton, in which he scored a fine free-kick, and is being assessed, while Villa loanee Matt Targett is ineligible to play against his parent club and Paul Dummett could replace him at left-back if he is fit to return from a hamstring problem.
Dubravka, Darlow, Gillespie, Manquillo, Trippier, Murphy, Dummett, Krafth, Burn, Schar, Lascelles, Shelvey, Guimaraes, S. Longstaff, Willock, Fraser, Almiron, Joelinton, Saint-Maximin, Wood, Gayle.
Midfielder Bruno Guimaraes, who made his debut as a late substitute in midweek, will hope for a first start and fellow new arrival Dan Burn is yet to make a appearance, but defender Federico Fernandez (thigh), midfielder Matt Ritchie (knee) and striker Callum Wilson (calf) are still out.
Emi Buendia is a huge doubt for Aston Villa‘s trip to the north east.
The forward suffered a hip injury in the 3-3 draw with Leeds and boss Steven Gerrard admits he could miss out but Philippe Coutinho will shrug off the cramp which forced him off on Wednesday.
Ezri Konsa is banned after he was sent off against Leeds while Marvelous Nakamba (knee) is sidelined.
Martinez, Olsen, Cash, Mings, Hause, Chambers, Digne, Young, Sanson, Chukwuemeka, Luiz, Ramsey, Chrisene, Iroegbunam, Buendia, McGinn, Coutinho, Traore, Bailey, Ings, Watkins.

Forward Hwang felt a back spasm in the build-up to Thursday’s 1-0 home loss to Arsenal, while midfielder Moutinho missed the game because of a calf issue.
Pedro Neto (knee), Yerson Mosquera (hamstring) and Willy Boly (calf) remain unavailable.

PART ONE | With more rumours circulating around Old Trafford and two points dropped at Burnley, what’s the state of affairs looking like in Manchester United’s top-four chase? What’s been behind the upturn in form for Southampton, their opponents on Saturday? We discuss Spurs’ disappointing evening against the Saints in midweek, ask whether Wolves will stop them bouncing back, and decide who’s best-placed in the race for the Champions League spots…
PART TWO | How serious – and warranted – is the pressure on Brendan Rodgers at Leicester? How much can we read into West Ham, their next opponents, beating Watford on Tuesday night?

PART THREE | Frank Lampard takes charge of his first home Premier League game with Everton this weekend, but is the pressure already on as Leeds visit Goodison Park?
