Newcastle United vs Chelsea squad information
Newcastle are concerned about the fitness of England international Anthony Gordon, who missed the Chelsea game with a groin injury picked up in training on Saturday. Manager Eddie Howe is struggling to select an attacking lineup, which could give Will Osula and Jacob Murphy a chance to feature against Chelsea on Wednesday night.
Isak, who has returned from a toe injury, could be rested, while Callum Wilson remains sidelined with a back injury. Newcastle's defence is also affected by the absence of Jamaal Lascelles and Kieran Trippier, while Sven Botman is not expected to return until early in the new year.
Chelsea, by contrast, have no fresh fitness concerns following their 4-1 win over Panathinaikos. Maresca is expected to make changes to his starting line-up, with several stars returning, including Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Joao Felix. However, defender Ben Chilwell is a concern, as he is an underrated player and his availability remains uncertain after missing recent training sessions through illness.
Latest predicted lineup Newcastle United vs Chelsea
Newcastle United:
Vlachodimos; Livramento, Krafth, Schar, Kelly; Longstaff, Willock, Tonali; Murphy, Osula, Isak
Chelsea:

Latest Newcastle United vs Chelsea football review
Newcastle, who finished seventh last season, are aiming to return to the Champions League for the 2024-25 campaign. However, their start has been difficult, with five games without a win, particularly after a 2-0 defeat to Chelsea. Alexander Isak, the team's main striker, has scored just two goals in seven games, suggesting his form is slipping.
In the Carabao Cup, Newcastle beat Nottingham Forest on penalties and overcame AFC Wimbledon to reach the third round. Backed by Saudi investors, the club are hoping to end their trophy drought since 1955.
Chelsea, after defeat to Liverpool, have made it two wins in a row in both the Conference League and Premier League. Goals from Nicolas Jackson and Cole Palmer helped them move up to fifth in the table. Manager Enzo Maresca made several changes for the Carabao Cup tie, and the substitutes shone, with Christopher Nkunku scoring a hat-trick.
Chelsea have not won the Carabao Cup since the 2014-15 season, but they are in good form at the moment and will pose a big test for Newcastle in the upcoming match.
