Keeps clean sheet inact.
Schar generated one tackle (zero won), 10 clearances and one interception in Sunday's 2-0 win against Crystal Palace. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 46th minute.
Analysis: Schar made his first Premier League start of the season Sunday, recording an interception, three blocked shots and 10 clearances in the win over Crystal Palace. A groin injury limited him to just three league appearances prior to this match, but playing the full 90 minutes is an encouraging sign for the defender. He will now look to reestablish himself as a regular starter, though some inconsistency may be expected after missing significant time through injury over the past year.
Starts in Carabao Cup
Schar started and played the full 90 minutes in Tuesday's 1-0 Carabao Cup win over Millwall.
Analysis: Schar was back in competitive play for the Magpies once again, his first time playing in a competitive match since January, as he recorded the full 90 against Millwall. This is a bright sign for the defender as he looks to bid for time in league play again, adding some depth to the bench. He could still function as a useful rotational pick in the defense once fully fit, pushing for time behind Malick Thiaw, Sven Botman and Dan Burn (ankle).
