Eddie Howe has provided an update on injuries ahead of Saturday’s Premier League clash against Bournemouth. Several key players have been absent in recent weeks and supporters were hoping a break in top-flight action last weekend would allow the treatment table to clear up.
A full-strength Newcastle United would head into the contest as favourites but, as Crystal Palace showed, the Magpies’ attack can be blunted when key players are missing. United have looked wasteful in front of goal with their big hitters and supporters are desperate to see them return.
This is the current state of play regarding injuries after Howe’s pre-match press conference.
