The Magpies will play in-front of supporters for the first time this pre-season when they take on Hull City this afternoon. A game against German third-tier outfit SpVgg Unterhaching away in Germany resulted in a 3-1 win for Eddie Howe’s side, whilst they have also played a training game against Burnley at the Clarets’ training ground.
Their clash against Hull will be a good test for the Magpies to see how they are shaping up ahead of the new season - one that gets underway in three weeks time when they host Southampton at St James’ Park.
Joe Willock hasn’t made the trip to Hull, neither has Sean Longstaff. Those on international duty at the Copa America and Euro 2024 haven’t been included in the matchday squad either:
Newcastle United team news: Nick Pope; Joelinton, Harvey Barnes, Jamal Lewis, Alexander Isak, Emil Krafth, Lewis Hall, Tino Livramento, Jacob Murphy, Dan Burn, Jamie Miley
13. Ben Parkinson - 5

14. Trevan Sanusi - 7
On for Barnes 63: A first-team debut for the 17-year-old, who only signed his first professional contract earlier this year. Drew a foul with a good turn of pace down the left flank and was lively to win a corner. Probably the pick of Newcastle's young debutants. | Manchester United via Getty Images
15. Alfie Harrison - 5
On for Joelinton 63: Another debut handed out for the former Manchester City youngster. A quiet introduction to the first team on the whole. | Wolves via Getty Images
