Newcastle face off against Manchester United at St. James’ Park on Sunday as they look to improve on their performance against Leicester.
Steve Bruce’s side lost 5-0 to Leicester last weekend and now come up against a United side who have only won two of their seven league matches.
Ahead of the game, Newcastle have released the latest pictures from the players in training.

READ NEWCASTLE VERDICT
Should Florian Lejeune and Allan Saint-Maximin start at the weekend?
If both are fit and available, there is a case to be made. Newcastle conceded five goals against Leicester and looked all over the place at the back, which means that the introduction of a new centre-back could be what they need to steady the ship.
Meanwhile, Newcastle have scored just four goals in seven Premier League games and Saint-Maximin could provide the spark in attack that they have been so desperately missing in recent weeks.
