Newcastle suffering a sixth loss in their last seven games on Tuesday
Magpies are now out of Europe and suffering a major loss in form due to ongoing injuries.
Idman.biz reports with referring to This Is Anfield that this comes with nine senior players out either injured or suspended. Eight of them are long-term absentees: Nick Pope (shoulder), Harvey Barnes (foot), Sandro Tonali (ban), Joe Willock (heel), Jacob Murphy (shoulder), Elliot Anderson (back), Javi
Manquillo (groin) and Matt Targett (thigh).
“Willock and Barnes are working behind the scenes, no update on them. Lascelles isn’t serious, we hope to get him back soon.”
Either Sean Longstaff or Lewis Miley will drop out for Joelinton in midfield, while Callum Wilson could be preferred to Miguel Almiron in attack and both Tino Livramento and Lewis Hall may be considered at full-back.
Kieran Trippier has regularly captained the side this season when Lascelles has been absent, but the right-back has been in shocking form of late, while left-back Dan Burn also struggled against Forest.
