Newcastle United take on Wolves in the Premier League this afternoon - and Magpies supporters have two burning questions.

One - is record signing Alexander Isak available to make his debut? And two - will the Sweden international start at Molineux?

Certainly, the second question will be answered at 1pm when Eddie Howe names his United starting XI to face Bruno Lage’s side.

The Newcastle head coach will be forced into at least one change with striker Callum Wilson sidelined for a couple of weeks.

Chris Wood is in line to start - but will Howe give into the temptation to throw Isak straight into the starting XI?

Here, NewcastleWorld predicts the line-up Howe will name against Wolves, as United look to maintain their unbeaten start to the campaign:

GK: Nick Pope

RB: Kieran Trippier

CB: Fabian Schar

CB: Sven Botman

LB: Dan Burn

CM: Bruno Guimaraes

CM: Joe Willock

CM: Joelinton

RW: Miguel Almiron

LW: Allan Saint-Maximin

ST: Chris Wood (in for Callum Wilson)
