Isak, Kelly and Krafth all start – Confirmed Newcastle team vs Bournemouth

The team news is in at the Vitality, where Eddie Howe’s Mags take on former club Bournemouth in today’s 2pm kick off live on Sky Sports.

STARTING XI: (4-3-3) Pope – Livramento, Krafth, Burn, Kelly – Longstaff, Bruno, Joelinton – Murphy, Isak, Gordon.

SUBS: Ruddy, Trippier, Barnes, Targett, Osula, Hall, Almiron, Willock, A. Murphy

As expected, Emil Krafth replaces the suspended Fabian Schar at centre-back, with Lloyd Kelly coming in at left-back for Lewis Hall.

Martin Dubravka is not in the squad due to concussion in training, with Odysseas Vlacadimos missing from the squad once again following links with a potential loan move.

Callum Wilson (back), Lewis Miley (foot), Sven Botman (ACL) and Jamaal Lascelles (ACL) miss out, while Sandro Tonali sits out for the final time ahead of his comeback in Wednesday’s Carabao Cup clash at Nottingham Forest.

For the hosts, new £40m striker Evanilson starts up top, with Argentine centre-back Senesi replaces Huijsen in defence:

Bournemouth XI: Neto – Araujo, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kerkez – Christie, Cook – Semenyo, Tavernier, Kluivert – Evanilson.

HOWAY THE LADS!
