Leicester City have won each of their last five Premier League away matches at Newcastle United. In their league history, only at Leyton Orient have they won more consecutively on the road (six between 1925 and 1980).

Newcastle have won each of their last four Premier League home matches, as many as they had in their previous 24 at St James’ Park (D11 L9). They last won five in a row at home in March 2019.

Leicester’s James Maddison has been involved in five goals in six Premier League appearances against Newcastle (three goals, two assists) – against no side has he been involved in more in the competition.

Chris Wood scored Newcastle’s winner against Wolverhampton Wanderers last time out, and is looking to score in consecutive Premier League matches for the first time since joining the Magpies. Wood has scored four PL goals against his former side Leicester, only netting more against West Ham United (seven) and Wolves (six).
