Town have made one change for this afternoon’s home game against Newcastle with Sammie Szmodics coming in for the suspended Liam Delap as the number nine.
Aside from the return of Szmodics, who missed the 2-1 win at Wolves as he was ill, it’s the same side which lined up at Molineux. On the bench, Jacob Greaves comes in for Luke Woolfenden.
Newcastle also make one change from the team which beat Leicester 4-0 last week and Brentford 3-1 in the Carabao Cup, both at St James’ Park, with Joelinton suspended. Joe Willock starts in the Brazilian’s place.
