Team News

Newcastle United
Newcastle will welcome Jonjo Shelvey back to the fold after he served a suspension in the draw with Palace, but Martin Dubravka, Freddie Woodman and Paul Dummett remain sidelined with injuries.

Ryan Fraser was handed a surprise start in Jones's first match in charge but was replaced by Miguel Almiron 66 minutes in at Selhurst Park, which is a change that could occur from the first whistle here.

Joe Willock is also pushing for inclusion over Sean Longstaff, as Wilson and Allan Saint-Maximin seek to terrorise the Chelsea defence up top.

Chelsea
Chelsea's treatment room is starting to fill up again all of a sudden, with Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner both expected to remain sidelined, while Christian Pulisic remains out after a setback in his recovery.

On more positive notes, Tuchel is hopeful that Andreas Christensen (tooth), Ruben Loftus-Cheek (hip), Cesar Azpilicueta (shoulder) and N'Golo Kante (muscle) will all be able to shake off their various ailments in time for this clash.

Havertz should continue as the focal point of the Blues' attack with Lukaku and Werner sidelined, while Mateo Kovacic's stellar showing against the Canaries will not see him retain his place after he suffered a hamstring injury in training.
Newcastle United possible starting lineup:
Darlow; Krafth, Lascelles, Clark; Manquillo, Hayden, Willock, Almiron, Ritchie; Wilson, Saint-Maximin

Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Mendy; Azpilicueta, Rudiger, Silva; James, Jorginho, Kante, Chilwell; Mount, Hudson-Odoi; Havertz

Prediction: Newcastle United 0-2 Chelsea
