Newcastle have no new injury concerns but remain without Callum Wilson, Allan Saint-Maximin and Miguel Almiron.

Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish will miss a fifth successive game because of the combination of a shin problem and illness.

Matty Cash is fit after a hamstring injury, while Anwar El Ghazi has recovered from an infected toe.

The only available player to score more than one league goal for Newcastle this season is Jeff Hendrick
The Irishman has scored from both of his Premier League shots on target this season
