I won't be surprised to see a few more returnees on the bench,I'll eat my hat if we don't get something out of this.

Just Wilson back I think? Stick him on the bench as let him come on around 70 mins to rest Isak.

Although we should be quite nicely rested now, so current team should be good enough.

Think Trippier is around as well.

From nufc.com:

Team: Joe Willock will play no further part in the remaining games this season, as he recuperates from an achilles problem. A similar decision looks to have been made with back injury victim Lewis Miley.Callum Wilson has now returned to full training and is set for a place on the bench. He's netted two of our last three goals away to Palace in the PL.Nick Pope, Miggy Almiron, Matt Targett, Joelinton and Kieran Trippier are still sidelined, Sandro Tonali remains unavailable due to suspension and Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles are both long-term absentees with ACL injuries.

Olise is hardly Pele dude, he's decent, but if he was that good he'd be playing for someone better than France U21 at the age of 22.

Palace are a distinctly average team, Anderson is the only one I'd be interested in signing from them.

From the BBC:
Head-to-head

  • Crystal Palace have won just five of their 25 Premier League matches against Newcastle United, including only two at home.
  • Newcastle's 4-0 win in the reverse fixture is their biggest league victory against Palace.
  • The Magpies can can win both Premier League meetings in a season for the third time, after 1994-95 and 2013-14.
  • However, Newcastle have won on only one of their past eight league visits to Selhurst Park.
Crystal Palace

  • Crystal Palace have won consecutive Premier League matches for the first time since a run of three in April 2023.
  • However, they are winless in their last 15 league fixtures to be played on a Wednesday.
  • Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise have started only six Premier League matches together this season, winning the last four. They have scored or assisted 13 of the 14 goals scored in those six games - the other goal was an own goal.
  • Palace average 2.4 points per game this season when Olise, Eze and Jean-Philippe Mateta all start, in contrast to 0.9 without the trio.
  • Olise has scored seven goals and provided four assists in 10 Premier League starts this campaign.
  • Mateta is the first Palace player to score in four successive top-flight home matches since Mark Bright had a run of five from December 1990 to January 1991.
  • Mateta has scored six goals since Oliver Glasner's first Premier League game in charge, a tally bettered only by Cole Palmer (10) and Alexander Isak (7) during this period.
Newcastle United

  • Newcastle United have taken 10 points from their past four Premier League games, after they amassed 11 points in their previous 11.
  • They can equal their longest Premier League winning streak this season of three matches.
  • In the reverse fixture of Newcastle's six remaining opponents this campaign, the Magpies picked up 15 points out of 18 - only dropping points in a 3-1 defeat at Brighton.
  • Newcastle have scored 69 Premier League goals this campaign, one more than last season.
  • Their tally of 13 Premier League goals scored by substitutes this season is the most of any club.
  • Eddie Howe has won only one of his eight league away matches against Crystal Palace, Bournemouth's 2-1 victory in February 2016.
  • Alexander Isak has scored 17 goals in 24 Premier League appearances this season, equalling his career-best return in a single campaign while at Real Sociedad in 2020-21.
  • Anthony Gordon has provided 10 goals and eight assists in the Premier League this season, although only one goal and two assists have come in away games.
Interesting one highlighted there!...

Olise is one of the hottest properties anywhere at the moment. His big move is this summer ? He would be ideal for us... eze is quality aswel.
