Rafael Benitez’s Magpies will probably be feeling more confident going to the game as their two victories have actually come in their last two games.However, the Clarets looked a much more solid unit last time out when they held Leicester to a goalless draw in their last league game.

What the managers are saying

Sean Dyche (Burnley): “Our fans will be behind the team. They were amazing at Leicester on a really tough day and played their part with respect and for the team.“That all helps, and all goes into a combined effort, which has been a big thing for me; the combined effort of the group, the fans and the club. Rafael Benitez (Newcastle):“Burnley are a strong team at home. Sean Dyche did a great job last season and I think he is quite a strong character.“They will want to get three points against us because we are close in the table and the pressure is more or less the same.”
