Bruno Guimaraes pictured arriving at Selhurst Park with Newcastle United squad

Bruno Guimaraes arrived with the Newcastle United squad to face Crystal Palace for tonight's clash in the capital.

The Brazil international strided into Selhurst Park less than a week after leaving the field in tears against Fulham in last Sunday's 1-0 win. However, after a scan earlier in the week showed no ligament damage, Eddie Howe saw fit to include him in the party that travelled south last night.

Howe had said yesterday: "He was devastated to come off the pitch. I probably think he thought at the time he had serious damage to his ankle. The scan did come back with positive news and hopefully it's not a long-term injury.

"We're still not sure when he's going to be back but he's made good progress this week. "We'll have a constant eye on the situation."

Guimaraes may have to settle for a spot on the bench but his matchday inclusion is a huge boost for Newcastle.
