The team has showcased some incredible performances with its defence, conceding just 5 goals while scoring 4 goals in its last five matches. Although their defensive side is able to perform well, the team still faces issues with their attacking side, as they are not able to consistently score goals. It is also likely that Newcastle United will win the next game against Leeds United with a clean sheet, considering the strong form of its defensive unit.

On the other hand, Leeds United will be standing as a close contender in the next game, as the team holds 12th spot in the standings with a win and a loss in its first two games. In their last five matches, the team has scored a combined total of 13 goals while conceding 6 goals, as their defensive unit was unable to give its best in the last game.

Newcastle United

Newcastle United will be entering its next Premier League clash against Leeds United as the favourites to win. They have been strong against Leeds United in the Premier League clashes, and the next match proves to be a vital opportunity for them to regain their winning momentum.
