"Scans for Joelinton and Fabian... Impact Joelinton, at this point, should probably be considered an option for the weekend, with manager Eddie Howe confirming it was nothing "too serious." If the Brazilian is an option against Luton, he could realistically end up on either the bench or in the starting XI, as he is a regular starter, but the club may not want to push the midfielder in a match that shouldn't put too much strain on the Magpies. If he does not make the starting XI, expect Lewis Miley to capture the start in the midfield, with Joelinton possibly getting some time off the bench.
