NEW VS LU: Team Preview

Newcastle United

Newcastle United has had a disastrous start to the season, as they have lost 3 matches out of the 4 played while one match resulted in a draw. A win in this match would increase their self-esteem as they are already facing exclusion from the EFL Cup. Manager Steve Bruce has come under immense pressure, as the team is facing criticism from the fans. The draw against Southampton gave them a single point as they stand at the 19th position in the points table.

Leeds United

Leeds United have also had a poor start to the season, as they have lost 2 matches and drew the other two. The defence has been a source of concern for the Whites as they have conceded 11 goals in the four matches. They had a successful season in the Premier League and will be looking to return to the desired form. Although they have started their season badly, both the losses have come against the giants of football as they lost to Liverpool by 0-3 and to Manchester United by 1-5. They are two places above the opposition with 2 points from 4 matches.

NEW vs LU: Head to head
