Set for suspension
Joelinton has picked up a 10th yellow card this season and will miss the next two games.
Analysis: Joelinton has now recorded a yellow card in two straight appearances and is heading for the sidelines, set to serve a two-match suspension. He will then miss out against Bournemouth on April 18 and against Arsenal on April 25, returning to face Brighton in May. This will force some changes, although the club will hope Bruno Guimaraes recovers from injury this week and can pick up the work Joelinton is leaving behind.
Assists against Everton
Joelinton assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-2 defeat against Everton.
Analysis: Joelinton delivered a well placed pass to the edge of the box for Jacob Murphy to score. After starting the previous Premier League match on the bench, he showed the attacking presence he can still bring to the side. The midfielder has taken 26 shots this season, a high total among Premier League midfielders, though he has created just 15 chances. He played at left wing in this match, which helped increase his attacking involvement, but his role going forward remains uncertain. Joelinton and Newcastle United will next face Manchester United, who sit third in the table, making it a difficult matchup.
