Newcastle United team news: Magpies retain Miguel Almiron and revert to back four

Steve Bruce kept faith with Miguel Almiron for Newcastle United’s clash at Leicester City.

And the Toon boss at the King Power Stadium.

With Jonjo Shelvey injured, Bruce also recalled Sean Longstaff while Emil Krafth came back into the line-up in place of Javier Manquillo.

But Allan Saint-Maximin was only deemed fit enough for a bench role after recent hamstring troubles.

American international DeAndre Yedlin was also named as one of the substitutes for the encounter with the Foxes.

Jetro Willems was absent as Bruce looked for his first win since the 1-0 victory at Tottenham Hotspur .

Leicester City : Schmeichel, Chilwell, Pereira, Soyuncu, Evans, Ndidi, Tielemans, Praet, Barnes, Perez, Vardy.

Subs: Ward, Justin, Morgan, Gray, Albrighton, Iheanacho, Choudhury.

UNITED : Dubravka, Krafth, Schar, Lascelles, Dummett, Hayden Longstaff, Atsu, Almiron, Muto, Joelinton

Subs: Darlow, Ki, Carroll, Saint-Maximin, Fernandez, Manquilo, Yedlin.
