The Magpies take on Fulham at St. James' Park in a 15:00 BST kick-off and the Brazilian comes back into the midfield after Ramsey made his second start of the season in the midweek Champions League win.

Sandro Tonali, who has been recovering from illness this week, is named among the substitutes with Lewis Miley - who scored his first goal for his boyhood club against the Cottagers two years ago - keeping his place in the engine room.

Harvey Barnes came from the bench to score twice on Tuesday and he is again among the substitutes.

For the second Premier League game in a row, Dan Burn lines up against one of his former clubs. The England international made 69 appearances for Fulham after joining them from Darlington in 2011.
