Newcastle United are drawing 1-1 with Nottingham Forest in the Premier League at St James' Park this afternoon - here are the player ratings from the match so far.
The Magpies made two changes to the side that lost 1-0 at Luton Town on Saturday with Sven Botman and Alexander Isak coming back into the side for Jamaal Lascelles and Callum Wilson. Joelinton returned to the bench after missing the Chelsea and Luton away trips.
Newcastle had a great chance to take the lead midway through the first half as Alexander Isak was fouled inside the area by Ola Aina. The Swede stepped up to net his 10th goal of the season from the penalty spot to make it 1-0.
In first-half stoppage time, Forest equalised through former Newcastle striker Chris Wood with a simple finish to make it 1-1 going in at the break.

5. Dan Burn - 3
Made some strong challenges but was beaten for Forest's equaliser. Elanga has caused him plenty of problems. Beaten again for Wood's second goal. A dismal afternoon before his withdrawal after 55 minutes. | AFP via Getty Images

6. Bruno Guimaraes - 6
Showed some real touches of class in the opening 45 but lost some composure once Forest went in front. Booked. | Getty Images

7. Lewis Miley - 6
Caught on the ball in a dangerous area early on but wasn't punished as Morgan Gibbs-White dragged a shot wide. After that shaky moment at the start, he quickly gained his composure and looked comfortable on the ball. His pass led to Newcastle's penalty. Hit a shot just wide in the second half as Newcastle pushed for a way back into the game. | Getty Images

8. Sean Longstaff - 4
Deployed on the left of the midfield. Made one important interception but another game that just passed him by as he couldn't make an impact at either end. | Getty Images
