During the English Premier League football game between Newcastle United and Brentford on September 16, 2023, at St James’ Park in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, north-east England, English striker #09 Callum Wilson (L) and English midfielder #15 Harvey Barnes of Newcastle United react after Wilson’s goal is disallowed.
Alexander Isak, Callum Wilson, and Sven Botman will all receive late decisions from Eddie Howe.
Isak began and scored in the Carabao Cup victory over Manchester City midweek but exited due to a tight calf. Wilson (hamstring) and Botman (knee) were completely out, and Howe has said the trio will be evaluated before the game’s start.
Another person we’ll need to check on later is Alexander Isak. The price of the three games we played last week was that. These games normally get up in the third game, which is where we are right now.
Dan Burn, who missed the City game due to sickness, is anticipated to return, according to Howe. Despite twisting his ankle on Wednesday, Bruno Guimaraes will play.
Due to an Achilles injury, Newcastle is still missing Joe Willock, and Howe just stated that summer recruit Harvey Barnes won’t be available until 2024.
We anticipate that he will be away for around three months, said Howe. “The good news is that no surgery was necessary, but his foot is currently in a boot. He has a wound beneath his toe, and he is already beginning to heal.
“I believe he will be quite sedated for a while because he needs to rest and give his body every chance to recover, and then we have to build him up gradually,” the doctor said.
Burnley team news
The 26-year-old was forced to leave Tuesday night’s Carabao Cup victory against Salford City halfway through the first half due to ankle swelling.
Vincent Kompany claims the injury isn’t as serious as initially thought, but he will probably be out for the next few weeks.
The Belgian remarked, “It’s not terrible news, but it has an effect on the squad for the weekend.
He’s progressing well, according to Kompany. “Again, hopefully a few players will be back by then after the international break.”
Hjalmar Ekdal (knee), Darko Churlinov (health concern), and Michael Obafemi (hamstring) are all still out as Lyle Foster completes the third and final game of his three-match suspension.
