Newcastle United Predicted Starting XI vs Athletic Club

eddie howe

The next match can’t come fast enough for Newcastle United, who shamefully lost to West Ham United, one of the worst teams in the Premier League, over the weekend. Athletic Bilbao, Athletic Club, whatever you want to call them, they are up next. They’ll get Newcastle’s best shot, no doubt about it, as manager Eddie Howe will have them fired up for this.

Howe might have some selection issues though, with Anthony Gordon and Kieran Trippier strong doubts, at best to feature in this one.
