Speaking at his Friday press conference, Eddie Howe wasn’t optimistic about Anthony Gordon (hamstring) making Newcastle United’s home clash against Brentford.
“No major update on Anthony [Gordon]. I think, probably, every chance he will miss this game coming up at the weekend. We hope it’s not a serious injury and he will be back pretty soon.” – Eddie Howe

But he is hopeful that fellow midfielder Bruno Guimaraes (ankle) will feature on Saturday.
“Getting closer. He did a training session, I believe, on Wednesday when we were travelling. Felt pretty good, so I will see him today and, yeah, fingers crossed, he’ll be fit.” – Eddie Howe on Bruno Guimaraes
As for Lewis Miley (knee), he faces further assessment.
“I’ll find out today. I am awaiting an update on him. Again, not a serious injury and I hope he will be back pretty soon.” – Eddie Howe on Lewis Miley
Still sidelined are Fabian Schar (ankle), Emil Krafth (knee), Joelinton (groin) and Tino Livramento (hamstring).
