Nick Woltemade

Analysis: Woltemade would continue in his midfield role Sunday and earn an assist with his efforts, finding Anthony Gordon in the 10th minute. This is his third assist of the season, but his first since initially being moved into more of a midfield role, his only two goal contributions during that span. He has now reached double-digit goal contributions in 27 appearances this season.

Clears illness

Woltemade recovered from his illness and is an option moving forward, according to coach Eddie Howe. "Nick [Woltemade] should be okay, had an illness, he trained yesterday individually and felt okay."

Analysis: Woltemade sat out Wednesday's clash against Manchester United due to illness but has now shaken off the issue after resuming training Thursday, even though he dropped some weight after struggling to eat earlier in the week. That's a positive development for the Magpies since he has been a regular starter lately, operating either up front or in midfield, and his availability gives the squad a welcome boost. That said, after losing some weight over the past few days, a return straight to the starting XI might not happen immediately.
