LONDON (SE) - Alan Pardew will be looking for his Newcastle part to bounce right back from what has been a traumatic week for the Magpies and their followers if they take on West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns on Saturday. Newcastle endured a 3-0 defeat by Sunderland at St James' Park last weekend in the Tyne-Wear derby and have since hit by destructive damage news regarding two key players. Goalkeeper Tim Krul is to endure surgery on Monday after dislocating his shoulder against Sunderland, while defense Ryan Taylor could miss out the whole of next year after re-tearing his leg ligament after time for teaching. "Ryan did so hard and diligently," said Newcastle boss Pardew. "Clearly every one at the club is deeply saddened by this news. "Ryan has been a individual and has given his all to ensure he can go back to complete trained in the best condition possible," added Pardew. "Ryan has, and will continue to, have the full support of everybody at Newcastle United in this hard time for him." Newcastle (10-6-17) are in 13th place in the Premier League table and five points free from the fall zone with five matches to perform and probably need at least still another victory to avoid being pulled into a late time relegation dogfight. Pardew is concerned that a few of his players may be burned out in the last days of the growing season after difficult Premier League and Europa League activities, mostly French playmaker Yohan Cabaye. "Cabaye might be my biggest worry," Pardew said. "The rest of these are actually sound physically and psychologically. But Cabaye is our most readily useful player in terms of intelligence on the pitch and he needs to play. That is why he's played almost every minute." West Brom (13-5-14) lost their last two Premier League matches but are correctly found in place - 13 points above the relegation areas. Baggies chef Steve Clarke insists he'd jump at the possibility of leading his part in to Europe. "If you've an opportunity to be eligible for a the Europa League then that's what you should do and your chances should be taken by you, like Newcastle did," Clarke told reporters. "I 've got some friends still at Newcastle and I know they enjoyed their Europa League venture. "They enjoyed the visits, enjoyed the activities and enjoyed the different issues against different players from different countries" Papiss Cisse won a stoppage-time champion with a happy deflection when Newcastle beat West Brom 2-1 in this season's change fixture at St James' Park in October. Demba Ba gave a lead to the Magpies before Romelu Lukaku equalised with a header. The Baggies house form has fallen substantially, losing three of their last six at The Hawthorns. Newcastle's road kind has been consistently poor, with just one win in 16 absent group matches. In the 121 all-time conferences between these factors in most games, West Brom have believed 46 wins, while Newcastle have 44. There have been 31 draws, and the aggregate rating is West Brom 205, Newcastle 205.
