Newcastle United made it four Premier League wins and clean sheets in a row at St James’ Park.
After Dan Burn’s back injury forced Kieran Trippier to rotate to left-back at halftime, Newcastle triumphed 1-0 thanks to Anthony Gordon’s second-half score.
Newcastle is sixth in the Premier League table after 11 games, with Eddie Howe’s team going seven games unbeaten in the league ahead of Tuesday night’s Champions League showdown at Borussia Dortmund.

Trippier has been a constant in the Newcastle team since the start of last season, missing only one game – the 1-0 Carabao Cup win over Manchester City in September. England’s right-back has seven assists in 15 games this season in all competitions.
The 33-year-old was Newcastle’s first acquisition under Eddie Howe, joining for £12 million from Atletico Madrid in January 2022. Trippier has since appeared in 68 games for the club, scoring three goals.
