Good to see NUFC new boy Fabian Schar on the bench ahead of his potential debut.
Armstrong is back in the squad, Gayle is involved (from the bench) despite links with West Brom, Aarons is NOT included after being left out of the trip to Portugal and there's also no Aleksandar Mitrovic - who's on his way back to the UK after Fulham agreed a fee with Newcastle tonight.
Kick off at 8pm folks! Let's hope it's a big turn out for Sir Bobby!
