Newcastle United v Leicester City: When is kick-off? Is it on TV? What is the latest injury news as Eddie Howe’s side aim for back-to-back Premier League victories?

Newcastle don’t have a great recent record against the Foxes at St James’s Park and have, in fact, lost six-straight home games against Leicester.

Brendan Rodgers’ side defeated Crystal Palace last time out in the league, however, they do come into this weekend’s clash on the back of their Europa Conference League Quarter-Final second-leg against PSV Eindhoven.

The first meeting between the sides ended in a 4-0 win for Leicester in December, a result which saw Newcastle sit second-bottom of the table having taken ten points from their first 16 league games.
