Newcastle United look for more home-pitch excellence when slumping Burnley visit St. James’ Park on Saturday.

The Magpies gave away two leads to Spurs in a 2-2 home draw on Tuesday but had won their previous three Premier League home matches there by a combined 6-2 score line.

Eddie Howe’s men enter the game with 19 points, five points shy of the top four. That’s off their standard but also well clear of his former club Burnley.

The visiting Clarets have lost five-straight matches — three home and two away — since winning two consecutive league matches in October.

Scott Parker’s men are now four points back of the safe places through 14 matches and are the only newly-promoted team in the bottom three.
