Newcastle predicted XI v Marseille: Anthony Gordon and Anthony Elanga to start from bench

Newcastle United wingers Anthony Gordon and Anthony Elanga are expected to start from the bench for Tuesday night’s UEFA Champions League encounter against Newcastle United.

In their places, it is expected to be Harvey Barnes who starts on the left-hand side and Jacob Murphy on the right, according to L’Équipe. At left-back, Dan Burn could get the nod ahead of Lewis Hall, with Tino Livramento starting on the opposite side of Newcastle’s back four.

Eddie Howe is without Kieran Trippier for the trip to the Vélodrome. He is also without William Osula and Yoane Wissa, meaning that options up top are limited, as they have been all season. Unsurprisingly. Nick Woltemade is set to lead the line against tonight.

On his return to France, former Olympique Lyonnais captain Bruno Guimaraes will captain his side.
