Newcastle take on the visitors Leicester in the round 33 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, April 17th at St. James Park (Newcastle).
In general, the season will definitely be remembered for a long time. The main event will be the long-awaited deal to sell the project. Michael Ashley donated the project to the foundation, which represents the royal family of Saudi Arabia. The victory over the direct competitor, "Burnley", remained the only one until the middle of winter. Still, the manager's work, combined with a staffing boost in January, helped turn the tide. Thee turned everything 180 degrees - in the period from January 22 to March 10, they took 6 wins with a single draw with West Ham. But, breaking away from the danger zone, the "black and white" relaxed, losing three times in a row. And only on April 8 they managed to win again.

Leicester’s decline was quite expected. They managed to spend 2 years among the real contenders for the Champions League - but both times at the decisive moment there was a defeat to one of the competitors, and a rollback to 5th place. And all that was able to compensate for this disappointment was last year's FA Cup. In such a tone and with such competition, the "foxes" simply could not hold out for too long - so they lost ground. Leicester has clearly fallen back into the middle of the Premier League: only 40 points, 11 less than West Ham and Manchester United. But it is worth noting that the guys of Brendan Rodgers have recently gained good shape, having won four times in the last 6 matches of the Premier League.
Newcastle have only won 1 of their last 6 head-to-heads. Leicester won four times in this stretch in regular time, and once again passed the "forty" on penalties in the cup. In this draw, in December, at King Power, the hosts won 4-0 with a double from Youri Tielemans. Lewis, Trippier, Hayden, Willock and Wilson are currently injured at Newcastle. Leicester are still without Bertrand, Ward, Ndidi and most importantly Vardy. Bookmakers believe that Newcastle will be the favorite at home. But Leicester also gained momentum, so we could expect an eventful match.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored.
