Newcastle United prepare for Fulham as Jaissle deals with injury concerns

Summarised from 2 outlets · 18 reports · Updated 4 Nov, 23:57 · Archive

Newcastle United face Fulham on Saturday with at least three players ruled out and two others as fitness doubts.

Newcastle United head to Fulham on Saturday with significant injury concerns, though some relief is expected before the trip to Craven Cottage. Matthias Jaissle will be without at least three players, with two more doubts, and cannot call on suspended midfielder Jacob Ramsey.

The injury situation is improving in some areas. Jaissle expects to have Mathias Fernandez-Pardo back in the squad after the £51 million summer signing was sidelined by illness in recent weeks. Young midfielder Lewis Miley is also on the verge of a return. Full-back Tino Livramento is closing in on a full recovery, though Jaissle said the club was being cautious with the England defender to prevent further setbacks.

Meanwhile, teenage Dutch midfielder Sean Steur is pushing for a starting place after an impressive cameo against Everton on Monday. In his 26 minutes on the pitch, Steur made more passes into the final third than any other Newcastle player, despite coming on in the second half of the club's 1-0 defeat to Everton.
