The Magpies' home form remains impressive though, having won six of their last seven matches in all competitions at St James' Park, conceding just once across those victories. The Tyneside club's first league loss since the opening weekend of September, a run spanning five wins and two draws up until their surprise defeat on the south coast a fortnight ago, leaves them seventh in the table heading into the weekend. Newcastle suffered back to back losses in the week heading into the break, falling to defeat in the Champions League against Borussia Dortmund before being surprisingly beaten by Bournemouth in the league on the Saturday.Įddie Howe's side most recent loss halted a lot of progress the Magpies had made following a slow start to the league season which saw them lose three of their last four matches. The two teams headed into last weekend's international break in contrasting form following the previous round of Premier League matches.
