Newcastle can take a giant leap towards qualification with a win against Club Brugge and are boosted by the inclusion of Yohan Cabaye.

The France international (26) had to go off against Liverpool on Sunday with a tight hamstring, but is included.

He joins Spanish striker Xisco in the Newcastle squad.

But defender James Perch has been added to an injury list which includes Jonas Gutierrez, Hatem Ben Arfa and Demba Ba.

Xisco (26) has spent the last two seasons on loan at Racing Santander and Deportivo La Coruna, and hasn’t played for Newcastle’s first team since August 2010.
