Newcastle United were dealt two new injury concerns prior to the 4-2 defeat at Liverpool on New Year's Day.
Eddie Howe was without England international duo Kieran Trippier and Callum Wilson after they picked up injuries during the Boxing Day loss at home to Nottingham Forest.
The pair join what is already a lengthy injury list on Tyneside ahead of Saturday afternoon's Tyne-Wear derby away to Sunderland in the third round of the FA Cup.
But Howe insists he is refusing to use the injury crisis as an excuse, despite exiting both the Carabao Cup and Champions League, and slipping to ninth in the Premier League table in recent weeks.
"You talk to any team in the Premier League and take half their team away, you're going to notice that over a long period of time and over a month where you're playing every three days, so I think we've been put in a tough spot.
"The big thing I look for is the effort and commitment of the players. Was there today? Yes. As long as we have that, we'll be fine."
As it stands, Newcastle are without Sandro Tonali, Nick Pope, Jacob Murphy, Harvey Barnes, Joe Willock, Elliot Anderson, Javier Manquillo and Matt Targett.
