Newcastle team news: Rafa Benitez missing just one player, rising star Dan Barlaser not included in squad

Newcastle United travel to Turf Moor to take on Burnley in the Premier League tonight.

Rafa Benitez decided to recall Mohamed Diame for the Monday night clash.

Benitez will be without Paul Dummet, Dwight Gayle and Mikel Merino due to injury.

Burnley meanwhile are without striker Chris Wood who is out injured.

Twenty year old midfielder Dan Barlaser has not been included in the squad despite impressing for the reserves.
