The Bees have enjoyed a strong season and are ninth with nine games left to play, six points outside the top six, despite picking up just one win in their last five outings.
Newcastle have firmly put their February slump behind them and travel south on a four-game winning run that included an impressive 2-0 victory over Manchester United and a 5-1 thumping of West Ham in the last two.
The Magpies are third in the standings, three points above fifth-placed Tottenham in their bid to qualify for the Champions League, and they enjoyed this fixture earlier in the season, winning 5-1 at St. James’ Park.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a Premier League fixture, then you won't be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Premier League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
International Premier League TV rights
• UK: Sky Sports and BT Sport are the two main players once again, but Amazon also have a slice of the pie in 2022/23.
• USA: NBC Sports Group are the Premier League rights holders, with the Peacock Premium streaming platform showing even more than the 175 games it aired last season. If you pick up a fuboTV subscription for the games not on Peacock Premium, you'll be able to watch every game.
