It’s almost here. One of the biggest matches of Newcastle United’s season is this weekend.

Following their ecstatic victory against Norwich City last weekend, Newcastle are coming off of a major morale boost to their season, and one that should definitely give them a boost in this match.

The victory came to them in the form of 6-2, marking not only their first victory of the season, but a crushing defeat for the Canaries which went hand in hand with more confidence than their Tyneside counterparts.

But this match is on a much higher level than the match last week. This match has important written all over it, because both clubs are fighting for their Premier League status. Not just that, but both clubs could use a victory against their biggest rivals to boost their morale for the rest of the season.
