Howe said in his interview that they had COVID in their camp and with the injuries on top of that there was a chance they'd be at the limit with 14 players.

Bill has ordered the entire series of Coronation Street, next day delivery.
Was about to say the same .. Neots 13 players he said he may have, which is the limit. Maybe see if they’re keen for a game of heads and volleys to decide this one seeing as we don’t have anyone either

I'd say they'll be trying for a postponement especially with their injuries and "Covid" plus they are days away from the window opening to get in reinforcements.
They have 4 Covid cases (Darlow, Clark, Willock and Richie), yesterday they picked up 3 new injuries in Saint-Maximin, Wilson and Schar plus a suspension for Manquillo for us.
But they'll have Hayden back from suspension so if they require 13 players plus Goalkeeper and based on their bench yesterday, they should be able to field a team provided no new Covid.

Newcastle: I can see the reason they'd want to postpone. But there's also the issue that they just hit on some form and might want to push on in a fixture they see as manageable against an Everton team not exactly firing on all cylinders. If you're Howe, you might also want use the televised match to attract buyers for players he'd have to shift out before the expected in-comings of January.
They know they owe the PL big time after their takeover was forced through for them.
I think we'll see this game played.

I'd imagine they are testing their whole squad today. We'll probably know by tomorrow morning at the latest.
The Premier League have set a precedent now where you can get games called off because you’ve got a few injuries. What an absolute clown show.

We have Digne & Doucoure 1 yellow away from a 1 game ban, they have to get to 19 games without any yellow - it includes the 19th game.
(Godfrey, Gray, Townsend are on 3)
5 Yellows - 19 Premier League Matches = 1 game ban
10 Yellows - 32 Premier League Matches = 2 game ban
15 yellows - Last day of the same playing season = 3 game ban
20 yellows - Last day of the same playing season = As determined by a Regulatory Commission

Would be terribly unfortunate if they were to lie about some positive covid cases.
Yeah the precedent is the issue.
To be honest I think games have been called off for less than Newcastles issues.
