Newcastle is still waiting on Dwight Gayle, Paul Dummett, and Martin Dubravka but Matt Ritchie and Callum Wilson can come back into the fold barring any setbacks. Ryan Fraser’s status is in question and so is Jamaal Lascelles.

Crystal Palace – Newcastle prediction
No Zaha is good news for a Newcastle side which would prefer it be the one racing behind the back line. Palace has a marked advantage in midfield, though Jonjo Shelvey could return to the fold and makes things more interesting for the visitors. Palace 1-1 Newcastle.
