Leeds United will face Newcastle United in the Championship this weekend.
Scott Sellars said on The Noel Whelan show on BBC Radio Leeds on Friday evening (broadcast from 6pm, November 18, 2016) that Newcastle United will win against Leeds United this weekend.
Newcastle will take on Leeds away from home at Elland Road in the Championship on Sunday afternoon.
“I think if Newcastle think it’s not going to be a tough game, I think they will get a shock,” said former Leeds and Newcastle midfielder Sellars on The Noel Whelan show on BBC Radio Leeds on Friday evening (broadcast from 6pm, November 18, 2016).
“I think, I expect on form obviously Newcastle, the team in form that could win, but I think it will be a really tough game.”
Newcastle will head into the match as favourites and will feel confident of picking up all three points.
Rafael Benitez’s side, who got relegated from the Premier League at the end of last season, are the strongest team in the division.
The Magpies are also in great form at the moment, and the fans should expect at least a draw.
Leeds are also going strong in the Championship at the moment and are in the running for the playoffs.
A win against Newcastle at Elland Road is going to be massive for Garry Monk’s side, but perhaps realistically a draw is what they should be aiming for.
Leeds have not beaten Newcastle at Elland Road in a league game since September 1999 in a Premier League fixture, losing three and drawing one since, according to BBC Sport.
