Premier League 2025-2026: Newcastle-Burnley, the likely lineups

Newcastle hosts Burnley in the 15th day of the Premier League. Kickoff at 4 p.m. at St. James’ Park in a challenge that pits two teams with opposite goals against each other. The Magpies are looking for continuity after a mixed start to the season, while Burnley is called upon to score points to move away from the relegation zone.

Howe will have to do without the injured Ashby, Wissa, Trippier, Osula and Botman. Former AC Milan man Thiaw will therefore be confirmed again in defense, while in attack Murphy will complete the trident with Barnes and Woltemade.

Parker, for his part, is expected to reintroduce Florentino and Cullen in the middle of the field, with Tchaouna, Ugochukwu and Anthony, favored over Foster, supporting the lone forward Flemming. The infirmary remains crowded: in addition to the long-suffering Amdouni, Beyer and Roberts, Tuanzebe has also been added.

Probable lineups

Newcastle (4-3-3): Ramsdale; Livramento, Thiaw, Burn, Hall; Bruno Guimaraes, Tonali, Joelinton; Murphy, Woltemade, Gordon. Coach: Howe.

Burnley (4-2-3-1): Dubravka; Walker, Ekdal, Esteve, Hartman; Florentino, Cullen; Tchaouna, Ugochukwu, Anthony; Flemming, Coach: Parker.
