Doubt to face West Ham
Joelinton (thigh) is a doubt for Sunday's clash against West Ham after picking up a slight thigh problem, according to coach Eddie Howe. "We have a doubt over Joelinton who has a slight thigh problem."
Analysis: Joelinton's potential absence would be a real blow for Newcastle heading into one of the two final fixtures of the season, with the Brazilian midfielder having been one of their most important and energetic contributors throughout the campaign. The club will assess his condition over the coming sessions before making a final call on his involvement Sunday, with Jacob Ramsey expected to start on the left wing in his place if Joelinton cannot be cleared in time for the West Ham clash.
Three shots Sunday
Joelinton had three shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest.
Analysis: Joelinton recorded his most shots in a match since January on Saturday, as the midfielder attempted three shots, although only one was on target. That said, he has not recorded a goal contribution since Feb. 28, remaining at two goals and one assist this season.
