Newcastle United's threadbare squad suffered another injury blow on Saturday.
Nick Pope is facing a spell on the sidelines following a dislocated shoulder picked up in the closing stages of the 1-0 win over Manchester United. Anthony Gordon also went off with a hip complaint late in the game which is not thought to be serious.
Pope's injury is set to hand Martin Dubravka a run of matches in the side while any more outfield injuries could prove particularly problematic for Magpies boss Eddie Howe, who has just 12 senior outfield players to choose from at the moment.
17-year-old Lewis Miley has been thrust into the starting line-up in the absence of Sean Longstaff and Joe Willock. Both midfielders are understood to be closing in on returns while Sven Botman has also made progress after more than two months out with a knee issue.
Meanwhile, Callum Wilson remains out with a hamstring injury, leaving Alexander Isak as the club's only recognised senior striker. The injury situation has not significantly hindered Newcastle's form so far this season as they head into the match against Everton at Goodison Park on the back of consecutive Premier League wins against Chelsea and Manchester United as well as a valiant 1-1 draw against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.
Here is Newcastle United's current injury list and expected return dates for each player...

1. Matt Targett (achilles)
Targett has been missing since picking up a hamstring injury against Man Utd back in November. He has featured on the bench in their last couple of outings before dropping out v West Ham and Everton in what is understood to be a minor setback in his recovery. Expected return: Tottenham Hotspur (H) - 13/04 | Getty Images

2. Kieran Trippier (calf)
Trippier was forced off during the 3-0 win over Wolves with a calf injury. He has since been ruled out for over a month. Set for another couple of weeks out at least. Expected return: Crystal Palace (A) - 24/04 | Getty Images

3. Nick Pope (shoulder)
Nick Pope dislocated his shoulder against Manchester United in December and required surgery. Eddie Howe has said the goalkeeper is still a number of weeks away and isn't expected back until 'late April'. Expected return: Sheffield United (H) - 27/04 | Getty Images

4. Tino Livramento (ankle)
Livramento picked up a twisted ankle injury at Chelsea which ruled him out for the Manchester City trip. He returned against West Ham United before suffering another ankle injury which will keep him out for another couple of weeks. Expected return: Burnley (A) - 04/05 | Getty Images
