Impact Murphy may be heading back to the injury report once again after just returning to play two matches ago following a 13-match spell on the sidelines due to a shoulder issue. The club and player will hope to avoid another period outside of the squad, as they continue to have injury issues pile up just when they thought things were getting better. It looked to be more of a cautious move for the attacker to not play Saturday, and he will not hope to have a decent week of rehabilitation and return to the team sheet to face Bournemouth on Saturday after the injury scare.

Given 75 minutes in FA Cup Murphy (shoulder) made his return to play in Saturday's FA Cup contest against Fulham, registering 75 minutes as a starter in the win.

Impact Murphy is finally back on Newcastle's team sheet after missing the club's past 13 matches due to a shoulder issue. This is a bright spot for Newcastle in times that have recently been pretty tough, as they are finally starting to get some depth back in the team after a string of poor performances and a mountain of players currently sitting on their injury report. He should once again be on the team sheet against Aston Villa on Tuesday, possibly getting the start, with Miguel Almiron currently being questionable due to illness. Either way, his addition to the squad is a mighty improvement for the Magpies, as he is always a decent threat when on the field, having five goal contributions in eight appearances across league and UCL play this season.
