News

The confirmed Newcastle team v Brentford has now been announced.

Newcastle United picked up three wins in a row over Chelsea, Arsenal and Forest before the latest international break.

Only to come back down to earth with defeat to West Ham and the draw at Palace.

United then though bouncing back with a tremendous display against Liverpool, deserving at the very least the point NUFC ended up with.

Can Eddie Howe’s players now carry that confidence and momentum into today’s match?

**Newcastle United team v Brentford****:**

Pope, Livramento, Schar, Burn, Hall, Longstaff, Bruno, Joelinton, Barnes, Isak, Jacob Murphy

So two changes from the eleven that drew against Liverpool.

Longstaff, Barnes

**OUT:**

Tonali, Gordon

**Subs:**

Dubravka, Trippier, Tonali, Targett, Gordon, Wilson, Osula, Almiron, Kelly
