Newcastle United could have up to EIGHT player back fit and available for the visit to Wolverhampton Wanderers this weekend.

After an awful run of luck on the injury front, things appear to be looking up for the Magpies ahead of Molineux. Skipper Jamaal Lascelles and creative spark Allan Saint-Maximin are the stand out returnees, if they get through the final sessions of the week.

Here we take a look at the starting XI Steve Bruce could pick this weekend.

The Frenchman would be a massive risk to throw in from the off, more likely to be on the United bench. Even just having him available would provide a big boost for the United manager.

When fit, he's the best at the club by a mile, even if he doesn't at all look like scoring. A physical focal point for this United side to feed off.
