Newcastle United hosted Brentford last weekend, when they returned to winning ways after three successive Premier League losses thanks to a 1-0 victory. They were then back in Champions League group-stage action for the first time since the 2002-03 season, beginning their continental campaign with a goalless draw against Milan at San Siro. Today, the Magpies will aim to pick up their first league points on the road, having lost both away matches so far – just one fewer defeat than in the whole of last season.

Heading into the final game of the Premier League’s sixth matchday, Sheffield United have only one point on the board following a painful defeat last time out. The Blades suffered a 2-1 loss to Tottenham despite looking set for victory, as Spurs eventually equalised in the 98th minute and produced a winner two minutes later. Now, they host a team they have beaten only once in the clubs’ last seven league meetings, losing each of the other six.
