Newcastle United's longest Premier League unbeaten streaks – where do Eddie Howe's side rank after Southampton win?

The Magpies drew with Manchester United and Watford before picking up three consecutive wins against Leeds United, Everton and Aston Villa. A draw at West Ham United stopped the streak of victories but Eddie Howe’s side returned to winning ways at Brentford before beating Brighton and Southampton.

The run has seen United climb from 19th to 14th in the table, 10 points clear of the relegation zone.

Newcastle have now gone on their longest winless run and longest unbeaten run in over a decade, all in the same season. A fact that epitomises the club’s turnaround under Howe.

Here we look at Newcastle’s longest unbeaten runs in the Premier League over the course of the same season. We won’t be including the 11 or 17 game unbeaten streaks in the Championship in 2016-17 and 2009-10 respectively, only Premier League matches since the club were promoted in 1993.
