Latest team news for Newcastle vs Ipswich Town
Schar's equalizer at Villa Park was one of the few bright spots for Newcastle last week, but the Swiss defender was subsequently forced off with a hamstring injury. Manager Tindall said it was a precautionary measure, but his absence from recent training sessions has cast doubt on his availability.
The situation is even more worrying as the other two central defenders – Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles – are still recovering from knee injuries. Therefore, Emil Krafth may have to play as a makeshift center-back in this match. Up front, the talented Swedish Alexander Isak will continue to lead the attack with an impressive record: 15 goals in 14 matches against newly promoted teams.
On Ipswich's side, they will definitely be without Leif Davis due to a three-match suspension following his red card last weekend – a major blow for manager McKenna, especially since Conor Townsend is also dealing with a thigh problem. Cameron Burgess could be moved to left-back, or Ben Godfrey could be another option.
Ipswich's injury list is currently quite long, including: Jaden Philogene (knee), Arijanet Muric (shoulder), Wes Burns (knee), Chiedozie Ogbene (heel), Sammie Szmodics (ankle), Omari Hutchinson (thigh), Kalvin Phillips (calf) and Nathan Broadhead (thigh).

Latest football match prediction: Newcastle vs Ipswich Town
The temporary revolution under Jason Tindall had propelled Newcastle into the top three of the Premier League, with the loyal assistant to manager Eddie Howe taking charge while he recovered from pneumonia. However, the Magpies were ruthlessly sidelined against Aston Villa last week.
Fabian Schar had helped Newcastle equalize after Ollie Watkins scored the opening goal just 33 seconds into the game, but in the second half they were completely outplayed by Villa. Ian Maatsen and Amadou Onana scored against an own goal by Dan Burn – albeit a fairly clean one – ending Newcastle's six-game winning streak with a bitter 1-4 defeat.
After an inspiring run to the League Cup and four Premier League titles in just 16 days at the start of April, the trip to Villa seemed too much for a tired Newcastle. Nevertheless, a Champions League spot was still entirely within their grasp.
Currently, Howe and Tindall's team are in fifth place – the last position in the Champions League qualification group – with five games remaining, two points ahead of Chelsea and Aston Villa. If they win this match, they could overtake Nottingham Forest and Manchester City.
Newcastle are in excellent home form with four consecutive wins at St James' Park in the Premier League, including emphatic 4-1 victories over Man United and 5-0 wins over Crystal Palace. They could set a record for scoring at least four goals in three consecutive home games for the first time since the 1994–95 season.
Meanwhile, Ipswich also experienced the "four-goal nightmare" during the Easter break when they were annihilated 0-4 by Arsenal at their home ground, Portman Road – a match in which the visitors showed no signs of fatigue after their European Cup away game in Madrid.
Leandro Trossard scored a brace, along with goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Ethan Nwaneri, to give Arsenal an easy victory. Leif Davis's sending off for a rough tackle on Bukayo Saka only deepened Ipswich's woes. Saka was then inexplicably booed by some of the home fans.
This coming Saturday, if Ipswich fail to pull off an upset, they will be officially relegated. A draw or a loss would be enough to send them back to the Championship. Even a win would mean they would still have to hope West Ham fail to get any points against Brighton to have any chance of clinging to their slim hopes.
With a 15-point gap to West Ham and only five games remaining, Ipswich's chances of survival are almost impossible. To avoid relegation, they need to win all five remaining games, West Ham must lose all five, and Ipswich also need to significantly close the gap in goal difference.
However, three of Ipswich's four Premier League wins this season have come away from home – a glimmer of hope for their supporters. But with the memory of the 0-4 defeat to Newcastle at Portman Road back in December, that hope may quickly fade.
