Murphy starts, two Mags missing & three youngsters called up – Team news vs Fulham

The teams are in ahead of tonight’s FA Cup clash at Fulham, where Eddie Howe’s Mags take on Marco Silva’s side at Craven Cottage.

NUFC XI: Dubravka – Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn – Longstaff, Bruno, Miley – J Murphy, Isak, Gordon.

SUBS: Karius, Dummett, Krafth, Hall, Livramento, A.Murphy, Parkinson, Hernes.

Miguel Almiron misses out due to ‘illness’ and skipper Jamaal Lascelles is out with an unspecified ‘injury.’ This is what Newcastle are briefing, but it’s turned a few heads after both have been heavily linked with late moves away.

Jacob Murphy is back for the first time since November after overcoming a shoulder injury and replaces Miggy down the right in our only change from that 3-2 defeat to Man City.

Summer signing Travis Hernes makes the squad, alongside fellow youngsters Ben Parkinson and Alex Murphy.

Fulham have rotated heavily after playing their cup semi-final against Liverpool just a few days ago, seeing Palhinha, Jimenez and Willian all named on the bench.

Fulham XI: Rodak; Tete, Diop, Ream, Robinson; Lukic, Reed, Pereira; Wilson, De Cordova-Reid, Muniz.

Subs: Benda, Tosin, Castagne, Palhinha, Francois, Cairney, Willian, Jimenez, Vinicius
