Newcastle v Crystal Palace match preview
Newcastle will once more be without manager Eddie Howe as they look for a win which would take them into the top three of the Premier League.
The Magpies have won five games in a row to cement their push for another season in the Champions League – but Palace are in good touch too.
With up to 11 Premier League sides potentially playing in Europe next season the Eagles cannot be discounted.
