Confirmed Newcastle team v Leicester – Muto, Krafth and Longstaff start

The Newcastle team v Leicester has just been confirmed.

Newcastle kicking off their eighth match of the season on Sunday afternoon at 4.30pm.

Steve Bruce hoping to get his second Newcastle win and take the Magpies out of the relegation zone.

We knew Gayle, Lejeune and Ritchie were all ruled out, whilst Carroll and Yedlin very very unlikely to be considered as starters.

The confirmed Newcastle team v Leicester:

Dubravka, Krafth, Schar, Lascelles, Dummett, Atsu, Hayden, Longstaff, Almiron, Joelinton, Muto

Three changes with Krafth in for Manquillo, Sean Longstaff for Shelvey and Muto for Willems.

Subs

Darlow, Manquillo, Yedlin, Fernandez, Ki, Carroll, Saint-Maximin

A stronger looking bench and interesting to see what the formation will be…
