Newcastle United are playing well lately so they are inspired ahead of their home clash against Brighton in the English Premier League on Saturday.

The Magpies posted four wins and a draw in their last five matches to improve to 14th place with 25 points from as many games. They secured a 2-0 win at Brentford in their last game with Joelinton and Joe Willock scoring a goal apiece.

It remains uncertain if Allan Saint-Maximin will suit up for the Magpies after missing their last two games with a knock. Newcastle are already without Kieran Trippier, Callum Wilson, Jamal Lewis, Matt Ritchie and Isaac Hayden.

Brighton, on the other hand, have lost three in a row to drop to 10th spot in the table with 33 points from 26 matches.

The Seagulls suffered defeats to Manchester United (2-0), Burnley (3-0) and Aston Villa (2-0) and they have won only once in their last eight games.

Brighton manager Graham Potter are without injured players Jeremy Sarmiento, Enock Mwepu and Adam Webster.

Newcastle and Brighton fought to a 1-1 draw in November in the first meeting between the two sides this season. Leandro Trossard put the Seagulls ahead in the 24th minute before Isaac Hayden tied the scores in the 66th minute.
