Newcastle United

Out:BotmanLewis HallLascelles

Doubts: Gordon 75%

Banned:

Latest News: Lewis Hall (foot), Sven Botman (knee) and Jamaal Lascelles (knee) remain unavailable, while Anthony Gordon completes a three-match ban following his dismissal for violent conduct in the FA Cup defeat to Brighton and Hove Albion in early March. Gordon is also nursing bruises to his hip/groin after picking up a knock while on England duty but Eddie Howe hopes he'll be back for Gameweek 31. With no new problems reported, there's every chance we see the starting XI that triumphed at Wembley last month. A lack of FA Cup involvement last weekend means that the likes of Bruno Guimaraes, Joelinton, Sandro Tonali and Alexander Isak are well rested following their international exertions, while the carrot of a UEFA Champions League place should ensure there's no experimentation from Howe this early in the run-in. Joe Willock, Sean Longstaff and Lewis Miley are all alternatives in the middle of the park, with Callum Wilson fit again and able to offer fresh legs up top - but you'd still expect all four to be on the bench on Wednesday.


Brentford

Out:CarvalhoDasilvaHickeyThiagoGustavo Nunes

Doubts: Henry 50%Jensen 50%

Banned:

Latest News: Mathias Jensen (unknown) remains on the injury list alongside longer-term absentees Igor Thiago (knee), Josh Dasilva (knee) and Fabio Carvalho (shoulder), while Rico Henry (hamstring), Gustavo Nunes (back) and Aaron Hickey (hamstring), are not yet ready to feature despite starting for the under-21s on Monday to build up match fitness. Michael Kayode (knee) is at least back for the match on Tyneside, albeit likely to be a substitute yet again. Thomas Frank's line-up has barely changed over the last four Gameweeks, with only Christian Norgaard's enforced absence in Gameweek 27 spoiling ever-present records for all 11 names in this predicted XI. Sepp van den Berg is back fit, however, and there's a chance he could oust Kristoffer Ajer at right-back or even Ethan Pinnock at centre-half, with the Jamaica international perhaps not quite the force he once was. Frank also has the option of playing Mikkel Damsgaard on the left in place of Kevin Schade, bringing in Yehor Yarmoliuk for some extra legs in the engine room.
