Newcastle XI vs Man City: Gordon injury latest, confirmed team news and predicted lineup for Premier League | OneFootball

Magpies head to Etihad Stadium in rich vein of form

Newcastle will hope to have Anthony Gordon available for Saturday’s trip to Premier League champions Manchester City.

Gordon scored as Newcastle beat Arsenal 2-0 to progress into the Carabao Cup final earlier this month, though subsequently missed the 3-2 win over Birmingham in the FA Cup fourth round with a thigh injury.

Eddie Howe has confirmed Gordon should be fit for Newcastle’s trip to City, having responded well to treatment of late.

“It was a thigh problem, but he has responded well to treatment over the weekend. “

Sven Botman will miss the game due to a knee problem, although the issue is not thought to be serious.

Dan Burn could also feature despite coming off against Birmingham with a thigh injury.

Jamaal Lascelles is a long-term injury absentee, while Harvey Barnes and Joelinton remain some weeks away from a return.

Newcastle predicted XI: Dubravka; Livramento, Schar, Burn, Hall; Tonali, Guimaraes, Willock; Murphy, Isak, Gordon

Injured: Barnes, Joelinton, Botman, Lascelles

Time and date: 3pm GMT on Saturday 15 February 2025
