Newcastle United injury and team news
With the game against Brighton coming less than 48 hours after their draw with Chelsea in Atlanta, Eddie Howe is likely to name a completely different starting XI to the one that took to the pitch against the Blues.
Players like Harvey Barnes, Elliot Anderson, Callum Wilson and Bruno Guimaraes will all feature in New Jersey with the bench likely made up of the remaining academy cohort that have travelled to the USA. Fabian Schar picked up a minor hamstring injury against the Blues but there is hope that Joe Willock, who returned to first-team training this week, could get some minutes under his belt.
Nick Pope featured for 45 minutes against Chelsea and could also play against Brighton as he steps up his recovery from surgery.
