08/02/2022 Football – There are plenty of games played today. There are three games in the Premier League and five in the Championship.
08/02/2022 Football – Premier League – Newcastle United v Everton
- Isaac Hayden, Ciaran Clark and Jamal Lewis have all been left out of Newcastle’s 25-man squad for the rest of the season to accommodate their new signings.
- Marquee signing Bruno Guimaraes returned late from international duty with Brazil but should have enough time to train with his new team-mates to make a full debut here.
- Federico Fernandez is nearing a return but Matt Ritchie is still out with a knee injury. Joelinton is available and Paul Dummett should make the matchday squad.
- Newcastle signed defensive duo Dan Burn and Matt Targett late into the January transfer window and both should make debuts here. The former has a toe injury.
- January arrival Chris Wood will continue to lead the line with Callum Wilson now not expected back until the last few games of the season.
- Deadline day arrivals Dele Alli and Donny van de Beek were cup-tied for Everton’s 4-1 win over Brentford on Saturday but are available for debuts here.
- Frank Lampard used a 3-4-3 formation in his first game in charge of Everton but that doesn’t really suit Alli or Van de Beek.
- It will be interesting to see how Lampard uses both of his new signings as in an ideal world they would like to play in the same position and role.
- Ben Godfrey is out for up to five weeks with a hamstring injury suffered 14 minutes into their FA Cup win over Brentford.
- Dominic Calvert-Lewin missed the win with a knee injury but is in the squad for this game and will lead the line if fit.

08/02/2022 Football – Premier League – West Ham United v Watford
- Michail Antonio wasn’t risked in the FA Cup on Saturday after his late return from international duty with Jamaica but he will return to lead the line here.
- David Moyes has revealed Arthur Masuaku needs to see a specialist over a knee injury and Manuel Lanzini is nursing an Achilles injury. Both are ruled out here.
- Kurt Zouma had to play the remainder of their FA Cup tie with Kidderminster injured after Moyes had already used all of West Ham’s substitutes and he is a big doubt here.
- West Ham’s fringe players really failed to stake a claim for regular playing time with players like Issa Diop and Andriy Yarmolenko really failing to impress.
- Diop may actually get a reprieve here as Angelo Ogbonna is out for the season and there is a chance Zouma misses out as well.
- Alphonse Areola is on standby to continue in goal as Lukasz Fabianski didn’t even make the matchday squad on Saturday having also missed out the one before the break too.
- Emmanuel Dennis returns from suspension for Roy Hodgson in his second game in charge of Watford.
- Ismaila Sarr will be back from international duty with Senegal but this game will likely come too soon for him to be involved.
- Imran Louza, Adam Masina and William Troost-Ekong were all back on the bench on Saturday after their AFCON involvement.

08/02/2022 Football – Premier League – Burnley v Manchester United
- Josh Brownhill returns from suspension for Burnley and is expected to slot straight into central midfield against Manchester United.
- Burnley winger Johann Gudmundsson is out of action for a few weeks after having surgery for appendicitis.
- Striker Matej Vydra is also unavailable for several weeks after undergoing surgery for a hernia. Charlie Taylor looks set to miss out once again as well.
- Maxwel Cornet and Wout Weghorst didn’t really show any link-up against Watford so the former may move out wide with Jay Rodriguez starting up front.
- Paul Pogba returned from injury after a 15-game absence in Friday’s FA Cup exit to Middlesbrough.
- The Frenchman may be required to start this one as well as Fred has tested positive for COVID, along with fellow Brazilian Alex Telles.
- Eric Bailly will most likely miss out again through injury but Ralf Rangnick will hope to welcome Victor Lindelof back from illness on Tuesday.
- Bruno Fernandes should be fine despite taking a heavy knock to his back against Boro, while Rangnick confirmed Jadon Sancho was just tired rather than injured on Friday evening.
- Jesse Lingard wasn’t in the right head space to feature against Middlesbrough but should make the matchday squad here along with Edinson Cavani who was late back from South America.
- David de Gea will return after being given the night off in the FA Cup, while Anthony Elanga will push for a recall at Turf Moor.
Burnley — Pope; Roberts, Tarkowski, Mee(C), Pieters; Cornet, Westwood, Brownhill, McNeil; Rodriguez, Weghorst.
Man Utd — de Gea; Diogo Dalot, Varane, Maguire(C), Shaw; Pogba, McTominay; Rashford, Bruno Fernandes, Sancho; Cavani.
