Eddie Howe has made four changes to his Newcastle side from the 0-0 draw at AC Milan on Tuesday night. Elliot Anderson replaced Sandro Tonali in midfield while The Magpies’ front three changed entirely with Miguel Almiron, Harvey Barnes and Callum Wilson coming in for Jacob Murphy, Anthony Gordon and Alexander Isak.
The Magpies are looking to pick up their first away win of the season and make it back to back Premier Leaguevictories following a 1-0 win over Brentford at St James’ Park last weekend.
Sheffield United are still looking for their first league win since being promoted back to the Premier League. The Blades have drawn one and lost four of their opening five Premier League.
