Newcastle United have today confirmed that two games over the festive period have now been selected for live TV broadcast.
Our trip to Leicester City on Boxing Day – the first game back following the World Cup break – remains a 3pm kick off on Monday 26th December, but will now be shown live on Amazon Prime.
