Newcastle United are looking to bounce back from their recent disappointing form after struggling with four consecutive Premier League defeats. Last time out, the Magpies looked set to issue an upset to Manchester City but a huge comeback from the reigning champions denied Eddie Howe's side of a much-needed three points.
Newcastle have slipped to tenth in the league table with 29 points, 14 behind the top four. There is still time for Howe and his men to climb the table but with their current injury woes, it will require a big shift.
