Newcastle United faces PSV Eindhoven tonight, aiming for a solid position in automatic qualification.

The Magpies are in a crucial stage of their European campaign, currently holding the 12th spot in the league standings. They are just two points shy of the top eight and need to secure a win before their upcoming match against Paris Saint-Germain.

Despite ongoing injury challenges, Newcastle arrives at St James’ Park looking to maintain their strong home record against Dutch teams. A win would almost certainly ensure their place in at least the play-off round of the tournament.

Newcastle United Team News

Eddie Howe is dealing with a squad affected by new injuries and those close to returning. Dan Burn and Will Osula returned to training on Tuesday morning but won’t play tonight.

Howe noted that their recovery is positive, but the match against PSV is too soon for them. He must find solutions for a defense missing Fabian Schär, Tino Livramento, and Jamaal Lascelles.

Sven Botman is expected to lead the defense this week after confirming his long-term commitment to the club. Bruno Guimarães will compete against Joey Veerman in midfield, with both players excelling in delivering defensive line-breaking passes.

Anthony Gordon continues to be a key asset upfront, contributing seven goals in six European matches this season. Howe needs to select between Yoane Wissa and Nick Woltemade to spearhead the attack, having praised both players’ skills.
