Martin Dubravka - Keeps clean sheet in win Dubravka made one save and picked up a yellow card during Saturday's 2-0 win at Brentford.

Impact Dubravka wasn't really tested and kept his fourth clean sheet of the season -- third in his last five starts -- to help them earn an important roaad win. The goalkeeper is on fire right now, and will now look to keep the momentum against Brighton on Saturday.

Ryan Fraser - Good for Saturday Fraser (hamstring) is expected to be available for Saturday's match against Brentford, according to manager Eddie Howe. "And then you've got Ryan Fraser (who) will be okay. He came...

Impact Fraser has a couple days of training in him, so he should be fine to start Saturday. Getting to a full 90 may be a concern, something he's done just twice in his last six starts. No matter, he's starting matches in a forward position and has a split role on sets, so he'll always have some kind of fantasy value.

Allan Saint-Maximin - Considered late test for Saturday Saint-Maximin (calf) is considered a "late call" for Saturday's trip to Brentford, according to manager Eddie Howe. "In terms of his rehab, he's been away to get intensive, special...

Impact Saint-Maximin was seen in Monaco earlier this week, so it's hard to see him being ready to start Saturday. Even then, it's unclear why they'd force him into the squad if not fully healthy, so it looks like Saint-Maximin will miss Saturday's match even if Howe was being optimistic.

Javi Manquillo - Late test against Brentford Manquillo (ankle) is "getting closer to being fit and available" ahead of Saturday's trip to Brentford, according to manager Eddie Howe.

Impact Manquillo has a couple training sessions under his belt, but it doesn't seem like he'll be able to start Saturday. There's a chance he's on the bench, but even if that's the case, it looks like Emil Krafth is set for another start at right-back.

Allan Saint-Maximin - Not seen in training Saint-Maximin (calf) was not pictured in training Wednesday ahead of Saturday's trip to Brentford. Later Thursday, it was revealed that he was rehabbing in Monaco, reports Shields...

Impact It's not a good sign for Saint-Maximin, who missed last weekend's match after receiving a kick to the calf. If this is more of a muscular issue, this absence could extend and that's likely why he's in Monaco. He's in the middle of his fittest season in the Premier League, already compiling 22 league starts with five goals, both highs in the league. Jacob Murphy replaced him last match and could stay in the XI Saturday at Brentford.

Javi Manquillo - Back in training Manquillo (ankle) was pictured in training Wednesday ahead of Saturday's trip to Brentford.

Impact Manquillo may only have to miss one match with this ankle injury, which is definitely a boost for a side lacking depth at full-back right now. If available Saturday, he'll contend with Emil Krafth for starts at right-back while Matt Targett looks to be the guy at left-back.

Ryan Fraser - Pictured in training Fraser was pictured in training Wednesday after leaving the last contest with a minor hamstring complaint.

Impact It's not a positive sign for Fraser, who has had injury problems in the past and had started the prior eight matches for Newcastle. If he and Allan Saint-Maximin both miss out Saturday at Brentford, Eddie Howe will have to tinker some things in his starting XI after Jacob Murphy came into the starting group at West Ham.

Martin Dubravka - Makes two saves in 1-1 draw Dubravka made two saves and conceded once during the 1-1 draw against West Ham on Saturday.

Impact Dubravka continued his solid efforts in the draw Saturday. The keeper has not conceded two or more goals in six matches. During that span, he is averaging, 2.5 saves and 0.66 goals against per 90 minutes in all competitions. He also has two clean sheets during that timeframe. Dubravka's form has certainly made a climb since his defense got needed help. As long as he remains hot, he is well worth consideration.

Joseph Willock - Breaks barrier with goal in draw Willock scored once, took five shots (one on target), made two tackles (one won) and intercepted once in the 1-1 draw against West Ham on Saturday.

Impact Willock finally scored his first goal of the season in the tight draw Saturday. The midfielder has not been shy shooting the ball as of late with 12.0 shots over his last five matches, however, he has not managed to convert any into goals until now. Willock is also providing a solid effort on the defensive side of the ball. If he can continue to produce a two-way effort, he will surely be worth considering when he is in the starting XI.

FEBRUARY 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Chris Wood - Registers zero shots in draw Wood created two chances and sent one cross (none accurate) in the 1-1 draw with West Ham on Saturday.

Impact Wood has now played five matches with Newcastle since his arrival from Burnley and he still has yet to score a goal. The striker is averaging, 2.0 shots, 1.0 created chances and 0.4 crosses per 90 minutes in all competitions in that span. Although he has yet to make a drastic impact with the Magpies, he is at least besting his season averages from Burnley. As long as he continues to show improvements from his move, it will only be a matter of time until he ends the goal-drought.

FEBRUARY 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Joelinton - Takes two shots in draw Joelinton took two shots (one on target), created two chances, sent one cross (none accurate) and made one tackle (none won) during the 1-1 draw with West Ham on Saturday.

Impact Joelinton had yet another strong performance in the draw Saturday. The statistics may not say so, but he was phenomenal on and off the ball, creating ample space for the Magpies to navigate. He also was very close to scoring minutes into the match after West Ham midfielder Declan Rice made an error when clearing the ball. Joelinton is not an eye-popping player, but he is surely someone to keep an eye on when starting.

FEBRUARY 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dan Burn - Makes seven clearances in draw Burn took one shot (none on target), made two tackles (one won) intercepted once, cleared seven times and received one yellow card during the 1-1 draw with West Ham on Saturday.

Impact Burn was a force on the backline for the Magpies and thanks to him the club walked away with a point Saturday. The center-back continues to be the rock of the defense and a strong leader and role model while proving his worth on the pitch. In his last five matches, he is averaging, 0.8 shots, 1.4 tackles and 1.6 interceptions per 90 minutes in all competitions. As long as he continues to put up strong defensive peripherals, he will remain a worthwhile consideration.
