Newcastle will be hosting Leeds today in the fifth round of the English Premier League.

Both sides have had poor start to the season. 

Newcastle have collected just one point and Leeds two pts.

Bielsa's men last season were impressive finishing 9th but they have struggled alot. They have to work on their defence alot and Bielsa has to avoid playing attacking all the time. The midfielders most timed push bodies forward which makes them concede alot. Daniel James came off the bench in the last game but could start this game.

Newcastle will be without Shelvey, Wilson Anderson and Dubravka.

Fernandez and Schar could return here.

For Leeds, they will miss German defender Koch and Deigo Llorente.

As the game is played at St James Park, Newcastle have home advantage. The game could be high scoring. I go with Asian Handicap of +0.5 in favour of hosts. Odds are not bad as anything over 1.6 has value
