The two changes Newcastle United supporters would like Eddie Howe to make for Leeds clash

Newcastle United supporters would like to see Allan Saint-Maximin and Callum Wilson named in the starting eleven for the home clash with Leeds United. The Magpies are aiming to record a seventh straight Premier League win when they sign off for 2022 at St James' Park.

Eddie Howe was forced into one change for the Boxing Day victory at Leicester City, with Wilson's illness leading to a recall for Chris Wood. The January signing netted a penalty after just three minutes, and the head coach has praised the 31-year-old's recent performances.

Saint-Maximin began the campaign in blistering form, but has been sidelined by several injury setbacks in recent months. The Magpies number 10 was introduced as a late substitute in the 3-0 win at the King Power Stadium, and could be a candidate for a start should Howe opt to shuffle the pack.
