Miguel Almiron Back On Bench For Newcastle United Game At Aston Villa

 

MIGUEL ALMIRON is back in the Newcastle United squad for this evening’s Premier League game at Aston Villa.

However, while the Paraguayan has recovered from the illness that kept him out of the weekend’s FA Cup win at Fulham, he has only been handed a place on the bench at Villa Park.

That means Eddie Howe has named an unchanged side as Newcastle attempt to claim what would only be their second league away win of the season.

Jacob Murphy retains his place on the right of the Magpies’ attack, with Anthony Gordon on the opposite flank and Alexander Isak playing as the central striker.

Lewis Miley and Sean Longstaff continue to play on either side of Bruno Guimaraes in midfield.

ASTON VILLA (4-4-2): Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Lenglet, Moreno; McGinn, Kamara, Luiz, Tielemans; Diaby, Watkins.

Subs: Wright (gk), Olsen (gk), Carlos, Chambers, Kesler-Hayden, Ramsey, Bailey, Zaniolo, Iroegbunam.

NEWCASTLE (4-2-3-1): Dubravka; Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn; Longstaff, Guimaraes, Miley; Murphy, Isak, Gordon.

Subs: Karius, Dummett, Ritchie, Krafth, Hall, Livramento, Almiron, White, Hernes.
