Espanyol comes in on Friday night, with Atletico Madrid following the next day. With this mind, we kind of know how manager Eddie Howe is going to approach his team selection.
We’ve seen this here and there in recent years- Newcastle staging preseason friendlies on back to back days.
In these situations, Howe basically makes two entire teams, starts one of them in the first game, flips it over at halftime, and then starts the second team in the next friendly.
It’s not completely, exactly what happens, but that’s the gist of it.
