Brentford vs Newcastle Team news :

However, neither Kristoffer Ajer (calf) nor Keane Lewis-Potter (knee) is expected to return for several weeks, and fellow midfielder Frank Onyeka also missed the Old Trafford defeat with a minor thigh injury.
Frank may see little reason to make significant adjustments after seeing what he saw on Wednesday; however, Yoane Wissa and Aaron Hickey should be optimistic about returning to the starting XI. Willock recovered from a thigh injury to start for Newcastle at the London Stadium in midweek, and Howe has no new concerns from West Ham’s rout.
However, Miguel Almiron (thigh) and Emil Krafth (knee) will both be sidelined once more, and Ryan Fraser will continue to play for the Under-21s in exile. However, the former Bournemouth player has little chance of making it into the first XI in either scenario. Jacob Murphy, who has started in every one of Newcastle’s four recent victories, will make his fifth consecutive start in the Premier League this week, with Isak and Anthony Gordon providing support from the bench once more.
