Newcastle go with Martin Dubravka in goal, with a back four of Jacob Murphy, Jamaal Lascelles, Ciaran Clark and Matt Ritchie ahead of him.

Callum Wilson comes back in up front, with Miguel Almiron seemingly playing just behind him in attack.
Allan Saint-Maximin is only on the bench today, joining Karl Darlow, Fabian Schar, Jeff Hendrick, Emil Krafth, Elliot Anderson, Dwight Gayle, Sean Longstaff and Joe White.
Manchester City don’t appear to have any major absentees today as Ederson starts in goal.
Joao Cancelo, Ruben Dias, Aymeric Laporte and Oleksandr Zinchenko are the City back four today.
Rodrigo will sit in front of the back four as Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva will go further forward.
Gabriel Jesus leads the line, flanked by Raheem Sterling and Riyad Mahrez in the City attack.
The likes of Jack Grealish and Phil Foden are on the bench, joining Zack Steffen, John Stones, Nathan Ake, Ilkay Gundogan, Fernandinho, Cole Palmer and Josh Wilson-Esbrand.
