It's actually Matt Targett who swings it in to the back post but Fabian Schar's header is gathered by Neto.

Bruno Guimaraes is hauled down by Philip Billing and Newcastle have a free-kick.

Think it's around 30-35 yards out and too far for a direct shot.

Both teams started really bright, sharp and fast. Newcastle have just started to get on top of the game. They are getting a lot of joy on the right-hand side.

Bournemouth causing their own problems here, getting in each other's way as they look to clear.

It eventually drops nicely for Miguel Almiron inside the area, but the Paraguayan dribbles a sorry shot straight at Neto.

First real opening of the game falls Bournemouth's way.

Jordan Zemura floats a cross into the box and Nick Pope is in no man's land, unable to decide whether to come or stay.

The ball drops onto the head of Marcus Tavernier, but the former Middlesbrough plays loops his header wide.

Tavernier would love to score against Newcastle, love it.

Bournemouth goalkeeper Neto launches one upfield.

All good.

Big Dan Burn is down in the area from a Kieran Trippier free-kick but VAR has a look and says it's just a coming together.

Bournemouth goalkeeper Neto has to extend himself a bit more when coming out to claim Ryan Fraser's cross and he looks to be fine to carry on.

Nick Pope has put himself into a position where he should feel that he should be starting for England. He's playing well. He suits the style that Eddie Howe is playing with Newcastle.

Lovely footwork from the frontman Alexander Isak, evading Chris Mepham but the low cross into the six yard box is cleared by Jordan Zemura.

Neto, with his dodgy groin, is called into action but does not have to stretch too much to collect Joe Willock's cross.

But the first save of the game is made by Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope.

Ryan Christie drives forward and then has a go, Pope looks to be unsighted and has to quickly adjust to make a save low down to his right.

Neto gives it a stretch and a rub and wants to see how it goes.

Play continues.

Mark Travers, who conceded nine at Anfield, is out warming up.

Oh no, an early issue for Bournemouth as former Barcelona goalkeeper Neto is down, holding his left groin.

The physio is and Neto looks in a lot of pain.

I'm expecting Newcastle to come out of the blocks. I think it's their fixture to take to Bournemouth. But if they find their groove, they can dismantle Bournemouth quite easily.

A Newcastle clean sheet and hat-trick for Kieran Trippier would be nice for Fantasy.

Newcastle make a bright start, Ryan Fraser flying down the left wing and putting in a dangerous cross which is cleared by Bournemouth defender Marcos Senesi.

Under way at St James' Park.

A minute later than billed.
