Four changes for Newcastle

Newcastle boss Graeme Souness made four changes to the side which defeated Chelsea 1-0 at the weekend as he attempted to book a place in the last 16 of the UEFA Cup against Heerenveen.

With Jean-Alain Boumsong ineligible and Celestine Babayaro suffering from flu, Souness drafted Andy O’Brien and Aaron Hughes into his defence, while there were changes too further up the field.
