With fellow Brazilian Bruno Guimarães having marked his own appearance on the front cover with a match-winning brace against Leicester on Sunday, a rejuvenated Joelinton reflects on his transformation in a black and white shirt in Wednesday night’s issue, chatting exclusively to the programme over the course of an extensive, eight-page interview.

Elsewhere, ex-Newcastle and England frontman Paul Goddard is the latest former Magpie to take part in Q&A Revisited, in which we bring back to light some of the quick-fire interviews undertaken by United players over the years and then see how many of their answers remain the same in the present day.

Bruno himself, meanwhile, dips his hand into The Toon Tombola for the first time, discussing the apocalypse, Diego Maradona and the British rail network, while Toonament History – the feature in which we take a look back at Newcastle’s connections to football’s two biggest major tournaments – continues with a look at Euro ’92, where the likes of David Batty, Stuart Pearce and Alan Shearer were involved.

Club Historian Paul Joannou looks back at the Magpies’ Europa League run of 2012/13 in 140 Years of Action, with further nostalgia provided by regular columnist Stan Gate in Programme Matters. Kyle Crossley gives us this week’s Academy Diary, while we find out a little bit more about Newcastle United Women’s Grace Donnelly.

And, as always, we’ll have eight pages of coverage on our visitors, Palace, as well as skipper Jamaal Lascelles’ thoughts ahead of the game and Eddie Howe’s latest set of notes.

If you’re not able to make it on Wednesday, you can still order your programme online – available on Curtis Sport’s website here.
