10 Key Match Facts Ahead Of Leicester City Vs NUFC
7. 408 - Minutes Since Newcastle's Last Away Goal
The seven-game losing streak has seen Newcastle suffer four reversals at home and three on the road - with the Magpies failing to score an away goal in that time. In fact, the last time John Carvers men scored away from home was more than four-and-a-half matches ago, when Papiss Cisse put the Magpies in front against Alan Pardews Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. Since Cisse's 42nd-minute header against Palace, Newcastle have failed to score at the Etihad Stadium (vs Manchester City), at Goodison Park (vs Everton), at the Stadium of Light (vs Sunderland) and at Anfield (vs Liverpool) - making it 408 minutes in all since their last Premier League away strike.
