Tiote back for Magpies

Newcastle boss Alan Pardew will welcome back key midfield duo Cheick Tiote and Yohan Cabaye for tomorrow’s Barclays Premier League clash with Wolves.

Tiote has missed the last seven games because of his involvement in Ivory Coast’s African Nations Cup campaign, while Cabaye has now completed his three-match ban.

Utility man Ryan Taylor is also available after missing the 5-0 defeat at Spurs with an ankle injury, but Leon Best and Sammy Ameobi (both knee), Steven Taylor (Achilles) and Sylvain Marveaux (groin) remain on the sidelines.

Provisional squad: Krul, Elliot, Harper, Simpson, Santon, Ferguson, Perch, Coloccini, Williamson, Kadar, Tiote, Cabaye, R. Taylor, Obertan, Ben Arfa, Gutierrez, Gosling, Abeid, Ba, Cisse, Shola Ameobi, Lovenkrands.
