Rafa Benitez's men edged closer to the 30-point mark with more than 10 games left to play as the Magpies look to secure their Premier League status – and their popular manager's future.

The Spanish boss – who is out of contract in the summer – has been linked with the vacant Leicester City job following Claude Puel's departure this week.

Newcastle recorded a 2-0 win over Huddersfield with help from £20million record-signing Miguel Almiron who made a big impression on his debut.

In the opposite dugout, Sean Dyche has enjoyed an eight-game unbeaten run with Burnley.

They stunned Tottenham with a 2-1 victory at Turf Moor last weekend and will be raring to go against their bottom-half rivals.

Who will win? RadioTimes.com says...

Newcastle have tightened up while Almiron will provide a real spark going forward.

However, Burnley are a notoriously tough nut to crack and strike partners Chris Wood and Ashley Barnes have been finding the net with ease lately.

A win for either side would be huge but they could cancel each other out on Tyneside.
