Leeds vs Newcastle prediction 14.09.2026 | Premier League

Leeds had an excellent last season, finishing 14th, and avoiding relegation by eight points. Over the summer, they kept the core of the team and improved a bit. Many football pundits predicted the Whites could finish in the upper half of the league table, and they are delivering strong performances so far. After the first three rounds, they sit in 9th spot with five points! 

After a 6:3 loss to Chelsea in the EFL Cup, coach Daniel Farke spoke to the media. He said it was a crazy game, as he felt they were in control after going 2:0 up. Despite the heavy loss, the coach wasn't too unhappy, but pointed out they conceded too many goals. 

When it comes to injuries, the team should have no new ones, but Mateo Joseph, Ilia Gruev, and Joe Rodon should remain sidelined. 

Newcastle suffered big changes over the summer, losing their key players (Guimaraes, Gordon, and Tonali) and long-tenured manager, Eddie Howe. Everyone expected a big drop, but the Magpies surprised everyone and recorded five points in the first three rounds. They are playing a very exciting style of football with a lot of counterattacks. It seems that coach Matthias Jaissle has found a recipe for success, at least at this point in the season. 

After a 1:0 win over Millwall, coach Matthias Jaissle spoke to the media. He said it was a harder game than expected. However, the coach was proud of the players and said they generally dominated the match and ultimately won as they should. 

The newest injury on the list is right full-back Amar Dedic. The 24-year-old will most likely miss the match with a thigh injury. Luckily, Valentino Livramento has recovered from his injury and should start on the right full back position.
