Newcastle United have dropped just seven points from winning positions in the Premier League this season, fewer than any other side.The Magpies recorded a 78.0% share of possession in this game, the highest by any team in a Premier League match this season and Newcastle United's highest in the competition on record (since 2003-04).

Manager Eddie Howe may have returned for Newcastle United after recovering from pneumonia but his midfielder enforcer Joelinton misses out with a knee injury. It means, after seven games unchanged, there is an alteration to the starting XI with Joe Willock coming in.

Wolverhampton Wanderers extended their winning run to six league games in a 3-0 victory over Leicester City, and Brighton & Hove Albion struck two late goals in a 3-2 victory over West Ham United.
