Newcastle's Kieron Dyer, Lomano LuaLua and Steve Harper are set to face Dynamo Kiev on Tuesday. Dyer and LuaLua have recovered from injury, and Steve Harper's good performances have earned him the keepers shirt. Newcastle's Kieron Dyer and Lomano LuaLua have recovered from injury to face Dynamo Kiev on Tuesday while Steve Harper will return in goal.

Dyer and LuaLua both missed last Saturday's 2-1 win over Charlton with respective back and knee injuries but they have been passed fit and should take to the field as United look to keep their hopes of Champions League survival alive.

Nolberto Solano and Shola Ameobi are likely to drop to the bench to make way for the duo's return despite playing well in the win over the Addicks. Solano and Ameobi have not made mistakes, but Dyer and LuaLua deserve a chance.

Elsewhere, Sir Bobby Robson will recall Steve Harper to the Magpies goal for his second European tie in succession after he starred in the dramatic 1-0 win over Juventus. Hence dropping Shay Given.

The 27-year-old has been out in the cold for the past two season's due to Shay Given's excellent form but he returned in last week's tie and is set to play against Kiev despite being 'dropped' for the Charlton game.

And Robson has revealed that both Given and Harper will share the goalkeeping responsibilities over the next few games, insisting his number two deserves the chance to impress.

"Steve deserves a chance because he has been very patient," said Robson.

"I've spoken to both Steve and Shay and told them I will share the goalkeeping responsibilities over the next few games. Steve plays against Kiev, Shay is back in against Middlesbrough and then Steve will play against Everton."
