Newcastle United are looking for a third straight win to climb the Premier League table against Leeds United.
Eddie Howe’s side have beaten Burnley and Crystal Palace to move into the top 10 and start the night only five points behind fourth-placed Liverpool.
A run of five draws in six unbeaten games has helped Leeds edge to safety but they are in danger of falling back towards the bottom three.

Newcastle team news
Newcastle make two changes from the side that beat Palace 2-0.
Yoane Wissa drops to the bench, with Nick Woltemade returning to the starting XI after being a substitute in each of the last two games.
The other change sees Harvey Barnes replace Jacob Murphy on the right wing. Murphy was a doubt with a hamstring issue but is fit enough for a place on the bench.
Newcastle XI: Pope; Miley, Schar, Thiaw, Hall; Guimaraes, Tonali, Joelinton; Barnes, Woltemade, Gordon.
Substitutes: Ramsdale, Trippier, Botman, J.Murphy, Livramento, Wissa, Willock, A.Murphy, Ramsey.
Leeds team news
Like counterpart Howe, Leeds boss Daniel Farke also makes two changes.

Leeds XI: Perri; Rodon, Bijol, Struijk; Justin, Ampadu, Gruev, Stach, Gudmundsson; Aaronson; Calvert-Lewin.
Substitutes: Darlow, Byram, Bornauw, Tanaka, Harrison, Gnonto, Okafor, Piroe, Nmecha.
