Anderson, Almiron, Wilson and Botman all start vs Sheffield United – Official team news

The teams are in ahead of today’s 4.30pm kick-off at Bramall Lane, where Newcastle take on Sheffield United live on Sky Sports.

Here’s the team Eddie Howe has gone with:

(4-3-3): Pope – Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn – Longstaff, Bruno, Anderson – Almiron, Wilson, Barnes.

SUBS: Dubravka, Lascelles, Tonali, Gordon, Targett, Isak, Hall, Livramento, Murphy.

As we predicted, there’s four changes from our trip to Milan in midweek, with Callum Wilson, Harvey Barnes, Miguel Almiron and Elliot Anderson coming in for Alexander Isak, Anthony Gordon, Jacob Murphy and Sandro Tonali.

Sven Botman starts, rubbishing rumours online that he hadn’t travelled, while summer signings Tino Livramento and Lewis Hall are on the bench once again, seeing Howe stick by the same back five that’s secured back-to-back clean sheets.

Here’s the side Sheffield United have gone with, where the suspended Ollie McBurnie misses out – Foderingham, Bogle, Ahmedhodzic, Egan(C), Robinson, Thomas, Hamer, Norwood, McAtee, Vinicius Souza, Archer.

HWTL!
