Newcastle United kick off a big week for the club with a St James’ Park clash against Leicester City on Saturday, and head coach Eddie Howe will speak to the media this morning ahead of the game. This coming series of matches has been seen as season-defining by some, with United needing positive results against Leicester and Ipswich Town in the Premier League, and Wednesday night’s Carabao Cup quarter-final against Brentford, to ensure their ambition for the campaign remain intact.
Newcastle will be without Callum Wilson for two months after the striker suffered another hamstring injury – we’ll get Howe’s verdict on that plus the latest on any other injuries. The January transfer window is now only three weeks away and while Howe is likely to keep his cards close to his chest, be ready for any potential transfer hints.
Howe rotated at Brentford, with Sandro Tonali and Anthony Gordon starting on the bench, so should be expect any more changes this weekend? We’ll be hearing from Howe this morning so stick with us for live updates as they happen right here.
