# Newcastle Predicted XI: Huddersfield (A)

Newcastle will be hoping to secure their first win of the season on Sunday when they travel to Huddersfield.

Rafa Benitez’s side fell short at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur last week in their Premier League opener. Jonjo Shelvey’s red card just after the restart was the catalyst for Spurs, who came away with a 2-0 win courtesy of goals from Dele Alli and Ben Davies.

Huddersfield, on the other hand, got their Premier League campaign off to a flying start. An own goal from Joel Ward and a brace from summer signing Steve Mounié helped the Terriers to a shock 3-0 win away at Crystal Palace.

Benitez will have numerous injury problems to contest with as he looks to find the winning formula on Sunday, but will be confident that his side have enough to see off David Wagner’s men.

So, without further ado, take a look at our predicted Newcastle line-up for the match!
