By Tyne-Talk
April 4 2013

Tim Krul returns in goal for Newcastle United this evening as they face Benfica in the quarter finals of the Europa League. Danny Simpson lines up for his second consecutive game, whilst Davide Santon returns from injury to join the starting eleven. Shola Ameobi starts on the bench leaving Papiss Cisse to try and find the back of the net and Gabriel Obertan, to the relief of many after his performance at the weekend, fails to make the starting line-up.
