Undefeated since Gameweek 5, Newcastle United can go eight points clear of fifth place with a win at Selhurst Park tonight.

Crystal Palace’s clash with the Magpies kicks off at 17:30 GMT.

Eddie Howe’s side are unchanged from last Sunday, which means that Bruno Guimaraes has made a remarkable recovery from an ankle injury that threatened to keep him out for weeks.

Alexander Isak and Allan Saint-Maximin, who would have been tussling to replace Guimaraes had he been ruled out, have to be content with a spot on the bench again.

Despite picking up a point against Manchester United, Patrick Vieira has made four changes to his line-up.

Joel Ward, Eberechi Eze, Jeffrey Schlupp and Jordan Ayew are brought back into the side as Michael Olise, Nathaniel Clyne, Will Hughes and Jean-Philippe Mateta make way.

GAMEWEEK 21 LINE-UPS

Crystal Palace XI: Guaita, Ward, Richards, Guehi, Mitchell, Doucoure, Schlupp, Eze, Edouard, Zaha, Ayew.

Subs: Johnstone, Milivojevic, Olise, Mateta, Clyne, Hughes, Riedewald, Wells-Morrison, Ozoh.

Newcastle United XI: Pope, Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn, S Longstaff, Guimaraes, Willock, Almiron, Joelinton, Wilson.

Subs: Dubravka, Lascelles, Saint-Maximin, Ritchie, Lewis, Isak, Manquillo, Murphy, Anderson.

    Have we missed a trick this season not getting triple Newcastle defence and double arsenal

    Both have consistently been solid defensively

    Sure holds though out the season even with tough fixtures and allows transfers to be made in midfield and up top rather than wasting time and transfers on defence

      Newcastle defence is like 150% EO so people are definitely getting there

      But yes: 2 x Newcastle, Shaw, 2 x Arsenal looks great for rest of season

      Two of them will be on bench, wasting valuable spots for other players from those 2 teams. I think the trick is to get 2 Newcastle defenders, 1 Arsenal defender and 2 bench defenders.

      I did that after the World Cup, but now one of my bench players, Patterson, is injured.

        But, the Manchester United fixtures next week, if they are confirmed, will be too good to ignore.

    Everton fans blaming the board but surely Lampard should take some of the blame. Also players don’t want to hear their manager say he’s not the best manager in the world.

      There’s a lot of blame pie at Everton and pretty much everyone associated with the club has a slice of it.

      But, the board have probably done even worse with their transfer spending than my club (QPR) did when they were in the Prem.

      This has been coming for a long time. They somehow survived last season, but this may be it for them now.
