No Change for Toon

Newcastle United are expected to stay with the same squad in Holland that beat AZ Alkmaar 4-2 at Newcastle.

Young goalkeeper Tim Krul will not return to his home country as he is out with a knee injury.

Bernard (general fitness), Babayaro, Ramage and Moore (all hamstring) are all still injured and so the quartet of defenders will not make the trip to Holland.

Owen (ACL in knee) and Ameobi (hip) remain on Newcastle's long term injury list, but luckily Obafemi Martins and Antoine Siberski are performing in their place.

After a busy schedule and 46 games played so far this season, Glenn Roeder gave the first team the weekend off to rest up and head to Holland with an eye for making the quarter finals.
