Predicted Newcastle lineup vs Nottingham Forest: FINALLY a strong Eddie Howe defence
By Kian Long
RW - Miguel Almiron: Mr Hit and Miss will hope for a hit in this match. Almiron isn't everyone's cup of tea but nobody can deny that on his day, he's a great player. Unfortunately, his day hasn't come often in the last month but a good start in this match could kick start his confidence again.
CF - Alexander Isak: When he's fit, Isak is a better option to start than his counterpart Callum Wilson. Particularly in a game like this where Nottingham Forest can be difficult to break down, having an unorthodox centre forward could be key.
LW - Anthony Gordon: Gordon has been one of our most impressive players this season, which is why it was great to see his recent injury wasn't serious. When he's fit, there's nobody better for Eddie Howe to start on the left-hand side of the attack.
