Leeds host Newcastle at Elland Road in the Premier League on Wednesday. The home side have been unable to pick up wins at home of late, while Newcastle have picked up in recent weeks.

Leeds Form


Leeds have just one win in their last six matches coming into this match and have fallen to 14th in the Premier League table. 

For as entertaining as Marcelo Bielsa’s team are to watch, it will ultimately count for nothing if they are unable to get points on the board.

Leeds’ most recent win came three games ago as they defeated Everton 1-0 away from home, before they then lost 3-1 at Chelsea.

Last time out, they were beaten 2-1 by West Ham at Elland Road as Mateusz Klich’s penalty was cancelled out by Tomas Soucek and Angelo Ogbonna.

Leeds Team News


Leeds’ injury list will see them be without Diego Llorente, Robin Koch, Gaetano Berardi and Adam Forshaw.

Newcastle Form


Newcastle fans will be happy with the recent results of their team, who have won three of their last five matches in the Premier League.

Unlike their opponents, Newcastle haven’t always been pleasing on the eye but won’t care as long as they are getting results.

They have responded well to their demoralising 2-0 loss to Chelsea, starting with a late 2-0 win away to Crystal Palace.

The Magpies followed that up with another three points last weekend as they beat West Brom 2-1 thanks to goals from Miguel Almiron and Dwight Gayle. 

Newcastle Team News


Newcastle are set to be without Martin Dubravka, Jamaal Lascelles, Paul Dummett, Ryan Fraser and Allan Saint-Maximin.
