Premiership: Lee fit for top of the table clash

Midfielder Rob Lee could return from injury for Premiership leaders Newcastle for their clash with Leeds tomorrow.

The 35-year-old has recovered from the groin strain which kept him out of Tuesday night’s 3-1 win at Arsenal and will face a fight against fit-again Kieron Dyer to regain his place.

Clarence Acuna is back in training after a hamstring injury but is not included, while Christian Bassedas (hamstring) and Andy Griffin (dead leg) are both out.

Team (from): Given, Harper, Elliott, Hughes, Dabizas, O’Brien, Distin, Lee, Speed, Dyer, Solano, Robert, Bernard, McClen, Shearer, Bellamy, Ameobi, Lua Lua.
