Newcastle United team news v Leeds United: Matthias Jaissle’s side have arrived at Elland Road for Monday night’s Premier League clash.
Newcastle United are back in Premier League action against Leeds United at Elland Road (8pm kick-off).
Matthias Jaissle’s side are looking to continue their unbeaten start to the new season against a Leeds side who are also yet to lose in the Premier League so far this campaign.
Newcastle went into the game with Dan Burn, William Osula, Ewen Jaouen, Joelinton and Amar Dedic as injury concerns, though Jaissle remained tight-lipped on their potential returns.

But the Magpies have been boosted by the immediate return of Dedic following a minor hamstring issue. The right-back was part of the group arriving at Elland Road.
Dan Burn also travelled with the group but was not part of the matchday squad. Winger Anthony Elanga, who scored in each of Newcastle’s opening two Premier League games, was not spotted with the group as youngster Mason Miley was named in a Premier League matchday squad for the first time.
Matias Fernandez-Pardo is also set to make his first start for the club following his £51million deadline day arrival from Lille.
