Today Newcastle United welcome Leicester City, to St James Park, for their seventh game of the 2018 / 2019 season.
The previous six have failed to see Rafael Benitez guide his side to a much-needed victory, hopefully, that deadlock will be broken this afternoon.
The best Newcastle have managed this season, are draws away to newly-promoted Cardiff City and last time out, away to Crystal Palace.
Unfortunately, the three home games Newcastle have played, strangely all against opposition from London, have resulted in three defeats, let’s hope that trend changes this afternoon.
With the kick-off fast approaching, we are now able to bring you the team-sheets.

Fingers crossed we’ll be adding three points to our miserly total of two come the final whistle, otherwise, we could be all set for another glum weekend as September turns into October.
