Latest Newcastle vs Bournemouth team information
Newcastle have seen Harvey Barnes (muscle) join the injury list, along with Callum Wilson (thigh) and Jamaal Lascelles (knee). All three are aiming to return next month. Nick Pope is a doubt after a knee injury, but Martin Dubravka could continue in goal. Fabian Schar has recovered from illness and could return to partner Sven Botman in central defence, which could leave Dan Burn on the bench.
Bournemouth have a number of injuries. James Hill (hamstring) was forced off against Chelsea, joining Evanilson (foot), Enes Unal (ACL), Alex Scott (knee), Marcos Senesi, Julian Araujo, Marcus Tavernier and Luis Sinisterra (all thigh). Adam Smith is also doubtful. Lewis Cook could play at right-back, with Ryan Christie dropping into midfield alongside Tyler Adams, and Kluivert at No. 10. Semenyo and Dango Ouattara could swap positions at centre-forward and left-back, with the recently recalled Daniel Jebbison in reserve, and David Brooks likely to continue on the right. Kepa Arrizabalaga, after missing out against Chelsea, could return to the starting line-up in place of Mark Travers.

Latest Newcastle vs Bournemouth football review
Newcastle are aiming for a 10th straight win in all competitions when they visit Bournemouth this weekend, following a 3-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers. Alexander Isak, the Premier League's top scorer, has scored in eight consecutive games, also setting up Anthony Gordon to make it 3-0.
Eddie Howe sees "a lot of positives", while Alan Shearer believes Newcastle have a chance to challenge for the title as they have a system in place and Isak is scoring regularly. Fourth-placed Newcastle, five points behind Arsenal and nine behind leaders Liverpool, will play at St James' Park, where they have won their last five games, including their last three Premier League games by a combined score of 10-0. However, Newcastle have never kept a clean sheet against Bournemouth at home in six Premier League games, including their last two draws.
Bournemouth extended their unbeaten run to 10 games with a 2-2 draw with Chelsea, three days after a 5-1 win over West Bromwich Albion. Goals from Justin Kluivert and Antoine Semenyo put Bournemouth ahead, but Reece James's injury-time equaliser saw the game end in a draw. Bournemouth are fourth from bottom but four points behind Newcastle and in contention for a Champions League place. They have a tough schedule ahead, with games against Newcastle, Nottingham Forest and Liverpool. However, their five-game unbeaten run away from home - with at least two goals in each - will give them confidence. Bournemouth have not won in their last four Premier League away games against Newcastle, though, and have lost eight of their last 11 Premier League games that have been played after 12:30pm, including four away games.
