Match Preview – 20.45 Kick-Off at St James' Park, Newcastle-upon-Tyne
Newcastle United are closing on the immediate return to their natural surroundings in the Premier League, just twelve months after suffering traumatic relegation. Newcastle United are second in the table, but ten points clear from third place, meaning that they can afford to lose points. That is exactly what they have done recently, with only two wins in their last six matches, both against lowly opposition. Former giants Leeds United are fifth, fighting for a spot in the playoffs and dreaming of an unlikely promotion. Leeds United are inconsistent as well, with two wins in the last six games, but they are much more desperate for points.

Newcastle United vs Leeds United Predictions
The odds favour Newcastle United, but in the game between two wildly inconsistent teams, it is actually more logical to look for more attractive odds. Newcastle United struggled to beat even lowly teams like Wigan and Burton Albion lately, and Leeds United are a quality team, who are highly motivated fighting for promotion. It could be tempting to try the odds on Leeds United not losing this game (2.60) or even winning it (6.00).
