Newcastle vs. Leeds prediction, lineups, odds, TV and bet builder tips for Premier League clash image

Newcastle will be looking to make it three Premier League wins in a row when they host in-form Leeds at St. James' Park tonight.

The Magpies followed up their 3-1 win at Burnley with a 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace on Sunday that has catapulted them back into contention for a Champions League spot. 

Eddie Howe's side will face a tougher task against Daniel Farke's men, who are now seven games unbeaten after their 1-1 draw with now managerless Man United. There has been just two wins in that run but Leeds have already come away from the North-East with a point this winter. 

Can Newcastle kick on or will Leeds continue their unbeaten run? AllSportsPeople brings you our complete betting preview for the match, as well as how to claim 50/1 odds for over 0.5 goals!

Newcastle vs. Leeds United Prediction: Who Will Win Today?

This is likely to be a very tight game with Leeds becoming increasingly hard to beat.

They have won just once away all season so we're not backing them to win this one but a fourth consecutive point on the road is our tip here.

It would be a result that equally frustrates Howe and delights Farke. 

Score Prediction: Newcastle 1-1 Leeds (13/2 with Bet365)
