Leicester vs Newcastle predicted line-ups: What time, what channel, how can I watch online, team news, h2h, odds and more

A look ahead to the Premier League fixture at the King Power Stadium

Leicester City will look to make it five wins on the trot and continue their push for European football next season when they host Newcastle United.

The Foxes looked disillusioned under former manager Claude Puel before he was replaced by Brendan Rodgers, who has reinvigorated the side and has led them to victories over Fulham, Burnley, Bournemouth and Huddersfield in recent weeks.

A win against Newcastle here for Leicester would therefore boost their chances of winning the four-way scrap for seventh and a possible Europa League spot.

Rafael Benitez’s visiting party meanwhile are on the verge of safety, with seven points between them and Cardiff City in 18th.

While the Bluebirds’ tough run-in could mean the Magpies are already safe, their current run of three games without a win will concern the Spaniard.

What time does it start?

Leicester City vs Newcastle United kicks off at 8pm (GMT).
