Kick off time 19:45 (BST).

Not long before this one, 48 hours actually. Expect plenty of changes.

-------------------Ortega
Lewis---Stones---Simpson-Pusey--Wilson-Esbrand
--------------------O'Reilly
---------Nunes-----------Mcatee
Foden----------Mubama-----------Grealish
 
I very much doubt we would risk Dias or Akanji in that game. Pep will play an EDS player at CB next to Stones. Nico will play too.

I'd be surprised if a single starter from today begins the game vs Watford, maybe only Doku or Savinho (one half for both).
 
I know they’re conditioned to talk about taking one game at a time, but Newcastle away is one of the most physically demanding fixtures on the calendar, so that one now basically determines who will play against Watford.
 
Certs:

Ortega
Lewis
Stones
Nunes
McAtee
Foden
Grealish

Might start:

Nico
Wilson-Esbrand
Some EDS CB
Doku/Savinho (one half each).

Team will be good enough to get the job done.
 
Pretty simple, Everybody who didn't feature against arsenal starts, the ones from the bench will likely have to too then fill it out with kids. Should be more than good enough to win and if not, it avoids numerous schedule headaches further down the line.

Ortega
Lewis
Stones
Eds cb (simpson-pussey?)
Eds LB (jwe fit?)
O'Reilly
Nunes
Mcatee
Grealish
Foden
Eds striker (heskey?)

That side should be able to carry a couple of kids against watford who could very well put out a second string of their own as even championship sides tend to do that now and then put a few more kids on the bench for if we make it comfortable and can rest some of the first team. Don't even want to see the likes of haaland on the bench.
