Newcastle will look to continue their winning run in the Premier League on Boxing Day as Eddie Howe’s men travel to Leicester.

The Toon have won their last five outings in the league, with their last win coming against Chelsea at St James’ Park last month. That victory moved them up to third in the table.

Newcastle, who have lost just once all season, have won eight of their 15 games – a tally only bettered by Arsenal, Manchester City and Tottenham.

They travel to Leicester, who struggled at the start of the Premier League campaign. However, their form turned around before the World Cup.

Brendan Rodgers’ side won four of their last five games prior to the break to move them up to 13th in the table.
