What is at stake for Newcastle and Leeds United?

From the transfer saga with Alexander Isak to a lack of consistency in their results, it is fair to say that Newcastle have done it tough this season.

However, things are beginning to look up for the Magpies, who are now within touching distance of the top four following a run of successive league victories.

Howe and his men will now be looking for their first home league win over Leeds since 2004 as they attempt to strengthen their position in the congested battle for European places.

Leeds, meanwhile, have enjoyed a tremendous turnaround in recent weeks and are currently enjoying a seven-match unbeaten run in the Premier League.

Daniel Farke has seen his side go eight points clear of the bottom three, though there is still a lot more work to do before securing top flight football for another season.

The Whites will be determined to turn their recent run of draws into victories as they hunt their sixth league success of the campaign.
