Allan Saint-Maximin and Callum Wilson drop out of the side for Joe Willock and Alexander Isak. Wilson scored twice for Newcastle at West Ham but drops back to the bench in favour of Isak, who has scored four goals in his last four appearances.
Saint-Maximin drops out of the squad entirely with a hamstring issue. Newcastle are looking to secure a fifth straight Premier League win and continue their charge for Champions League charge.
