Newcastle dealt double blow as duo are ruled out of next week's must-win clash vs Norwich

Jamaal Lascelles and Matt Ritchie will miss next Tuesday's must-win clash with Norwich at St James' Park.

The pair came into Saturday's game with Arsenal on four yellow cards for the season - one away from suspension - and both received bookings in the 2-0 defeat at The Emirates.

As a result, they'll now miss next week's vital game against the Canaries and return for Saturday's equally important clash with Burnley.

One relief was that Callum Wilson avoided a booking, with our top scorer being another who came into the match on four yellow cards for the season.

So, with Lascelles and Ritchie out, there'll be at least two changes next week. Who knows, this could see Jamal Lewis come in for his first start of the season against his former club?

At centre-back, it will be interesting to see if Fernandez returns after being left out of the squad five games running.

Whatever happens, this is a game we simply must win after Saturday's defeat left us 13 games without a win so far this season.
