Newcastle vs Leicester live stream on BT Sport: How to watch on New Year's Day online and on TV

Leicester City commence 2020 with a trip to Newcastle United on New Year's Day.

Brendan Rodgers' Foxes retain second place in the Premier League by a whisker ahead of Manchester City, but trail Liverpool - who have played one match less - by 13 points after successive defeats by their two main rivals was followed by a narrow win at West Ham that proved to be the final straw for Manuel Pellegrini.

Up next is a Newcastle team that were thrashed 5-0 at the King Power Stadium in September.

Steve Bruce's side have evidently improved since then, though their progress was recently halted by successive defeats to Manchester United and Everton over the festive period.

That latter loss was their first at home since August and Newcastle will be eager to get back on track at St James' Park.
