Newcastle wants to get back after losing to Borussia Dortmund in the middle of the week.
On Saturday, the Magpies will visit Molineux to play Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Before this weekend’s Premier League match, Eddie Howe faces many selection conundrums.
An enthusiastic St James’ Park crowd witnessed their team’s 1-0 loss that puts their chances of qualifying for Europe in risk midweek when they drew a blank against their Bundesliga opponents.
Howe is correct that his players gave it their all in the final third, even though they were unable to equalise and sometimes lacked a little of quality. The Magpies will need to exert the same kind of effort when they visit Molineux on Saturday to take on an undefeated Wolverhampton Wanderers club that is out for revenge before a weary Newcastle squad pays them a visit.
Growing injuries on Tyneside haven’t helped matters; during Wednesday’s loss, Howe lost two more important players. The Newcastle manager must make some important choices before his squad travels to the Midlands this weekend since several first-team players are still absent.

CM: Sean Longstaff – Newcastle suddenly appear thin in the midfield after Elliot Anderson sustained an injury and Sandro Tonali received a ten-month ban. Since joining the squad, Longstaff has been at the peak of his game; nevertheless, he will have to contend with Joe Willock, who is back, for a starting position.
Bruno Guimaraes, the CM Passed the game by quietly throughout midweek and ought to have been sent off against West Ham United before the international break. Maybe he needs a few words from Howe to help him get back into shape.
Joelinton, the ultra-aggressive middle of the park, has the ability to dominate the midfield contest between Wolves’ two holding players.
Miguel Almiron (RW) The Paraguayan is known for his intense work rate, which may be necessary to counteract Wolves’ flanking duo.
ST: Alexander Isak will be replaced by Callum Wilson due to an injury. The striker is still a fantastic addition to the club even though he lost a fantastic opportunity to tie the score in midweek.
