Newcastle welcome Leeds to St James’ Park in the Premier League this evening as the hosts aim to create more distance between themselves and the relegation zone.

Newcastle have failed to win any of their last 10 fixtures, having been beaten 2-0 by Aston Villa in their most recent outing, and the pressure is increasing for manager Steve Bruce, with his side 16th in the top flight on 19 points – seven off the bottom three.

Leeds, meanwhile, have lost their last three games. They were defeated 1-0 by struggling Brighton in their last match, which followed a shock 3-0 FA Cup loss to Crawley and a 3-0 defeat by 10-man Tottenham.

Marcelo Bielsa’s team are 12th in the table on 23 points, but will know that they could soon be in a dangerous position if they continue to slip.
