They trail to fourth-placed Chelsea by three points and have two games in hand in the Premier League. Currently being the favourites to earn a Champions League spot, Newcastle will take on Leicester City at the King Power Stadium on Monday.<\/p><p>The Foxes have struggled all season after earning promotion from the Championship last year. Having managed only four wins and five draws from their 31 match days, Leicester City are in a hole too deep. Manager Ruud van Nistelrooy&rsquo;s side is on an eight-game losing streak with their last win coming against Tottenham in January.&nbsp;<\/p><p>The last time Leicester City managed to take points from Newcastle United was in 2021. The Magpies beat Leicester 4-0 in the reverse fixture in December. Van Nistelrooy and his squad have barely had a positive note this season. Newcastle United who chase the elite league spots will not hold back in their match against the struggling Leicester City.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Example number 436 of the downfall of Leicester City<br><br>3 years ago today, they played PSV in the quarter final of the Conference League<br><br>Today, they face Newcastle in the Premier League without a home goal in four months and a mere 15 points adrift of safety with 8 to play <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/oh7DHFxaWQ\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/oh7DHFxaWQ<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Jason Bourne &#128251; &#129418; (@JasonBourne1986) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JasonBourne1986\/status\/1909117320364003631?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>April 7, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Newcastle United Injury News<\/h2><p>The Magpies faced Brentford at St. James&rsquo; Park on Thursday.
