Matheus Pereira was sent off at 1- 1 for kicking out t at Patrick van Aanholt.

Bilic, above, said: “The red card shouldn’t have been given, but I expected the ban to go down to one game.

“Then when I found it was three games, it was a very disappoint­ing decision.

3PM, SKY It is simply not fair, especially when you look at the bigger picture, what happened in that game, what happened in previous games. Everything goes against us.”

Steve B Bruce is urging the P Premier League Le to revert re to twice- t a- week Covid C testing after af the outbreak ou at Newcastle. Newc Bruce will be without at least three of his players who started when they beat Crystal Palace a fortnight ago.

He said: “I made it clear to the Premier League that I still think it should be twice.”
