Howe missed Newcastle's recent wins against Manchester United and Crystal Palace, but will now be looking to lead the team to another victory against Ipswich Town in the fight for a Champions League spot. However, the game may be more challenging than expected, as Ipswich are fighting to avoid relegation and a loss could send them back to the Championship.

During his time in hospital, Howe thanked the people who looked after him and expressed his appreciation for the care he received from the NHS and hospital staff. He also acknowledged the support from the wider football community and the Newcastle United team.

Howe's return to work is a positive development for the team, which is gearing up for a crucial match against Ipswich Town. The team will be looking to continue their winning streak and stay in contention for a Champions League spot.
