Newcastle United were pleased to see Callum Wilson back in the squad to face Leeds United with Eddie Howe naming an unchanged side. The Whites come into the tie having been beaten 3-1 by Man City in their last outing.
The Magpies are looking to end the season strong with their 22nd win of the 2022 calendar year. The Toon have amassed 71 points from a possible 105 available to them - a remarkable statistic given they were relegation favourites this time last season.
Some Toon supporters were pleased by the options available to Howe on the bench while others believe it was a sign for further additions in January.

Here's what Newcastle United supporters had to say about Howe's team selection:
@thomashammond_ said: "Can’t argue with that."
@agbnufc_ tweeted: "Strong, with plenty bench impact if needed."
@alastair10 said: "Read a lot of people say we don’t need to sign anyone. Take Wilson and ASM out of that bench and it is very average, at best."
@DrFootballNUFC tweeted: "Resting Wilson and ASM for Arsenal. Let’s do the business today, and then give #AFC a real shock."
@MaxwellA98 said: "Unchanged. Let's do it all again! Howay The Lads!!!"
@alexnic_10 said: "Wilson and Allan Saint-Maximin against tired legs."
