-------------------------------
Newcastle United
Jason Tindall will continue to step in for Eddie Howe, who continues to recover from pneumonia, and the assistant manager will name his strongest eleven to get the team over the line against Ipswich Town. Fabian Schar is a doubt after pulling up against Villa with a hamstring complaint.
Tindall did confirm his withdrawal was precautionary, although there will be question marks about the Swiss centre-back starting just yet. The bigger concern will be to rush the defender, given Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles are out of the equation as Newcastle United may not want to be without Schar for the remaining games.
Emil Krafth could be drafted in as a centre-back should Schar miss out, as he will feature alongside Dan Burn at the heart of the defence. Kieran Trippier and Tino Livramento will continue to operate in the full-back roles, while Tindall is expected to retain the same midfield setup of Joelinton, Bruno Guimaraes and Sandro Tonali. He will retain the front three. including Harvey Barnes despite the return to fitness for Anthony Gordon.
Ipswich Town
Kieran McKenna’s problems only compounded with the team’s performance against Arsenal as they may have a new defensive conundrum to solve. The red card to Leif Davis will see him miss three games in a row, and Conor Townsend is still a bit doubtful to feature.
Cameron Burgess is a good enough choice, but McKenna might use him as a centre-back, which could open the door for one of Ben Godfrey or Jacob Greaves to feature at left-back, with the latter likely to get the nod.
Beyond that issue, McKenna has a host of first-teamers missing from action, as the manager will likely use a similar setup in midfield and the front line to the one that started against Arsenal.
The only potential change from the last game would be the inclusion of Liam Delap, with the in-demand striker likely to lead the line for Ipswich Town against Newcastle United on Saturday.
Newcastle United possible starting lineup:
Pope; Trippier, Schar, Burn, Livramento; Guimaraes, Tonali, Joelinton; Murphy, Isak, Barnes
Ipswich Town possible starting lineup:
Palmer; Tuanzebe, O'Shea, Greaves, Burgess; Morsy, Cajuste; Johnson, Enciso, Clarke; Delap

Battling a host of missing players and without a Premier League clean sheet in 2025, the visitors will go down with a whimper as Newcastle enhance their Champions League credentials.
