Charlie Nicholas makes prediction for Newcastle - Leicester match

Sky Sports pundit Charlie Nicholas thinks Leicester will defeat Newcastle, predicting 2 - 1 score for the Premier League match. The Foxes are enjoying the season, sitting on the 2nd place of the Premier League table. While Newcastle are on the 11th place on the league list. Speaking on the upcoming fixture, Charlie has shared his thoughts, saying: "Leicester have such a confidence and authority on the ball against these teams and Newcastle probably deserved something from their match against Everton. Miguel Almiron had two chances in front of the goal that he sliced high, although he was unlucky in hitting the post. There was enough in Newcastle to say there was more of a threat going forward. Leicester try to pick teams off in games like this. Jonjo Shelvey must get on the ball and dictate these games. Andy Carroll and Joelinton were a handful, but Steve Bruce didn't play them as a pair - Almiron's speed behind them with the flying wing-backs made them look dangerous. Leicester will have too much when they are on the ball and can be dangerous from all areas." The two Premier League sides will face each other at St. james Park today.
