Newcastle vs Leeds United Preview
It’s fair to say that neither side would have had a fun week at training after both suffering three-goal defeats in the Premier League’s return from the international break.
Newcastle were the sacrificial lambs for Manchester United to rip apart in Cristiano Ronaldo’s return to Old Trafford while Leeds could not match Liverpool.
Perhaps we will see some sort of response from at least one of these teams, both of which are still chasing their first win of the new campaign.
The head to head market looks about right to me with Leeds appearing slightly stronger on paper than the Tynesiders, but not by a big enough margin to make anyone feel good about backing them in.
Neither side is doing all that well defensively with Newcastle conceding at least two goals in every match this season and Leeds have allowed 11 through four matches to date.
It’s not going to be a night for the defenders or keepers as we see the likes of Patrick Bamford and Allan Saint-Maximin put on a show.
