Newcastle United vs Nottingham Forest – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Newcastle United return to St. James’ Park on Sunday, aiming to translate their impressive midweek European performance into their domestic campaign.

After a slow start to the league season, a comprehensive Champions League victory will have provided a much-needed morale boost for Eddie Howe’s side ahead of this crucial fixture.

The visit of a struggling Nottingham Forest side provides the perfect opportunity to get back to winning ways in the league. Furthermore, Newcastle have a dominant home record against the Tricky Trees, having won eight of the last nine meetings between the clubs. The home fans will be expecting a similar result to kickstart their season.

Newcastle United team news

Eddie Howe’s main selection issue is a new injury to Tino Livramento, who is out for eight weeks with a knee ligament problem. While Lewis Hall is back in the squad, Dan Burn will likely continue at left-back. The manager is expected to stick with the settled midfield trio of Bruno Guimarães, Sandro Tonali, and Joelinton.

In attack, Nick Woltemade will be aiming to make club history. If he scores, he will join legends Les Ferdinand and Alan Shearer as the only players to score in their first three home Premier League appearances for the club.
