The midfielder missed the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg due to suspension.
The Brazilian, 27, was unable to feature in the fixture after he picked up two bookings in previous rounds.

Alexander Isak netted the opener before Anthony Gordon made it 2-0 on the night.
Guimaraes still managed to enjoy the game from the comfort of his sofa.
His partner, Ana Lidia Martins Guimaraes, took a video of the midfielder celebrating the full-time result.
He could be seen jumping up and down with his son Matteo in his arms chanting “Newcastle“.
Fan loved the heartwarming moment as it went viral on social media.

A second wrote: “He absolutely loves the Toon.”
A third commented: “Aww, that’s adorable.”
A fourth said: “Bruno living his best life after that win.”
Another added: “Just things you love to see.”
Meanwhile, Arsenal fans were left convinced that Isak’s opener should not have counted.
They spotted a push from the forward on Martin Odegaard moments before hitting the net.
More fans were left stunned when Gordon scored his goal as he pulled off a Thierry Henry-inspired celebration in North London.
Guimaraes’ team-mate Martin Dubravka was left in tears at full-time as he appeared to say farewell ahead of a move to Saudi Arabia.
After the game, Mike Arteta appeared to blame the ball for Arsenal’s defeat.
Arsenal player ratings v Newcastle
DAVID RAYA – 6/10
Looked nervy with ball at feet at times but could do nothing to stop Alexander Isak’s brilliant close-range finish.
Unlucky to see his palmed save tapped in by Anthony Gordon.
MYLES LEWIS-SKELLY – 8
Very impressive again. Turned out of danger well at both ends of the pitch. So calm under pressure.
GABRIEL – 6
Gave Isak far too much space to manoeuvre a shot in the box before the Toon’s second. Wasteful and ineffective from corners.
WILLIAM SALIBA – 6
Had an early effort blocked near the line by Dan Burn. Was dealing with Isak well until losing a header to Sven Botman that saw the Toon striker score.
JURRIEN TIMBER – 5
Miised an absolute sitter from a yard out from a corner. Was then caught sleeping just after the break to allow Gordon to double Newcastle’s lead.
THOMAS PARTEY – 6
Linked defence and attack fairly well without ever really doing anything spectacular.
DECLAN RICE – 6
Plays Jacob Murphy onside from a flicked on free-kick that leads to Newcastle taking the lead. Took more responsibility in the second half on the ball.
MARTIN ODEGAARD – 7
Heavily man-marked by Joelinton but looked back to his very best after a spate of illness.
GABRIEL MARTINELLI – 8
Much more direct in his running. Unlucky not to open the scoring with his driven shot hitting the post after a half-way line sprint.
Continued to be positive in his play – just lacked the finishing touch.
LEANDRO TROSSARD – 6
Sneakily got away with dragging Isak down to stop the Swede joining a Newcastle counter in the first half and a good first-time pass to set Martinelli away. Those were his only highlights.
KAI HAVERTZ – 5
May just be back from a sickness bug, but the big German did very little, apart from somehow fluffing a header wide unmarked from six yards
SUBS:
JORGINHO (PARTEY, 59) – 7
Some nice passes into dangerous areas and sprayed the ball about with conviction.
GABRIEL JESUS (TROSSARD, 59) – 6
Lively and sharp without every really testing Newcastle’s back four or goal.]
OLEKSANDR ZINCHENKO (LEWIS-SKELLY, 77) – 5
Booked within a minute of coming on for a rash challenge on Joelinton.
