Teams to follow: Newcastle vs. Manchester United may be moved to December 26; vs. Burnley may be postponed to January 1

Hupu reported on October 31 that Craig Hope, a famous reporter from the Daily Mail, wrote an exclusive weekly report on Newcastle United.

Injury update: mixed

Sources revealed that left back Lewis Hall has a 50% chance of being on the substitute list against West Ham United on Sunday after recovering quickly from his hamstring injury, but it is too early for Visa to return.

Earlier this month, Eddie Howe said that Visa would need another two weeks to fully recover from his knee injury, with reports at the time that West Ham United was his return date.

However, the Daily Mail revealed that the game against Brentford on November 9 is a more realistic goal.

It is unclear whether the swelling around the striker's knee has subsided enough for him to return, or whether his return will be delayed until after the international break.

Hard training at night

Newcastle United continue to make full use of the lights at St James' Park, allowing players to train late at night.

Given the busy schedule and reduced training opportunities at the Bandon training base, head coach Howie and the team's performance management director James Bunce now believe that post-match training time is crucial.

After Wednesday's win over Tottenham, wingers Anthony Gordon and Jacob Murphy didn't return to the dressing room until an hour after the game ended.

The extra practice ended so late that some of the starting players had already left the court!

Newcastle’s TV broadcast arrangements

Speaking of late-night training, the Premier League is about to announce the next round of TV broadcast adjustments from December to early January.

Although the official announcement has not yet been made, according to people familiar with the matter, Newcastle's away game against Manchester United may be moved forward from December 27 to the evening kick-off of Boxing Day (December 26), making it the only Premier League game on December 26.

In addition, Newcastle's away game against Burnley may also be postponed from December 30, or even to New Year's Day. The above information is yet to be confirmed and may change at any time, but this is the news from our side!
