Updates from St James’ Park (agg 2-0, 8pm KO)First leg report | Howe tells side to ‘leave a legacy’
Eddie Howe has made two changes from the defeat to Fulham: Kieran Trippier and Sven Botman come in for Tino Livramento and the injured Joelinton. The inclusion of Botman suggests a switch to three centre-backs, though that’s very unlike Eddie Howe. It might be that Fabian Schar moves into midfield.
Arsenal are unchanged.
