Head to Head


Newcastle have a 57-49 advantage against Leicester in 134 meetings with 28 draws. 

Newcastle Form


Newcastle’s European push has tailed off following a four-match winless run in the Premier League. The Tyneside club are now 12th in the table and have a -2 goal difference.

Eddie Howe’s side returned from the international break and lost 2-0 at home against West Ham. The Toon then drew back-to-back matches, 1-1 at Crystal Palace and 3-3 at home against Liverpool.

The Magpies played out another six-goal thriller on Saturday during a 4-2 defeat at Brentford. Newcastle equalised twice through Alexander Isak and Harvey Barnes before shipping two-second-half goals. 

Newcastle Injuries & Team News


Defensive trio Sven Botman, Jamaal Lascelles and Emil Krafth are injured and unavailable for Saturday’s clash.

Striker Callum Wilson is also sidelined due to injury. 

Alexander Isak has scored 11 goals and made four assists for club and country this season.

Leicester Form 


Leicester have recently recovered from a run of six matches without a victory. They conceded 18 during this run and Steve Cooper was sacked as a result. 

The Foxes are unbeaten in two since Ruud van Nistelrooy took charge in December. Van  Nistelrooy’s reign began with a 3-1 home victory against West Ham.

The Midlands team came back from two goals down to hold Brighton to a 2-2 draw last time out. Leicester trailed heading into the final last five minutes but Jamie Vardy and Bobby Decordova Reid scored late on.  

Leicester Injuries & Team News


Midfielder Boubakary Soumare is suspended and unavailable here.

Goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk, defender Ricardo Pereira, midfielder Harry Winks and forward Issahaku Fatawu are out with injuries.

Verdict

Newcastle and Leicester often see BTTS and another end-to-end encounter is expected between these sides. Alexander Isak scores plenty at St James’ Park and he can bag another goal on Saturday.
