Eddie Howe's side had been due to face Forest at St. James' Park on Saturday, 4th October at 3pm BST.

However, due to the visitors' participation in the UEFA Europa League the preceding Thursday, that game has now been put back a day to Sunday, 5th October, with kick-off now set for 2pm BST.

The game will be broadcast live on Sky Sports.

Any further changes to the Magpies' fixture schedule will be communicated at the earliest opportunity.
