Emre back for Newcastle

Newcastle midfielder Emre returns to the squad for Sunday's derby clash with Middlesbrough after completing his three-match ban.

Striker Mark Viduka could return from the calf injury which has prevented him from playing under new boss Kevin Keegan to date, but full-back Jose Enrique remains a doubt with a similar injury.

Joey Barton could figure at St James' Park for the first time since December 23 after a spell in police custody, but David Rozehnal has left the club to join Lazio on loan with Habib Beye and Abdoulaye Faye on their way back to Tyneside, although not in time for the Boro game.

Provisional squad: Given, Harper, Carr, N'Zogbia, Enrique, Cacapa, Taylor, Edgar, Butt, Smith, Milner, Duff, Emre, Barton, LuaLua, Owen, Viduka, Ameobi, Carroll.
