Pep Guardiola can add three players into his thoughts for Newcastle after a productive week at Manchester City - but may have lost some from the Bournemouth match.
Kalvin Phillips and Cole Palmer have recovered from the respective problems that kept them out of the 4-0 home win on Saturday, boosting the City squad for their trip to St James' Park. On top of that, new signing Sergio Gomez has been deemed ready to travel and immediately provide competition with Joao Cancelo for the starting left-back spot.
Despite that, while Guardiola would not provide any names he did say that some players were carrying niggles into the game - a term that the manager enjoys using that can often mean stars are not fit enough to be involved in a matchday. Liam Delap, who was on the bench against Bournemouth, has also departed on loan to Stoke City for the season.
