Match Preview
This is the first time that Burnley have less than 10 points after the first 12 matches of a Premier League campaign.
They have only won one of their last eight home league matches, but Sean Dyche is adamant that his side have put in some much improved performances in recent weeks.
"For the last number of weeks we have been showing signs of getting back to where we want to be," Dyche claimed.
"Now it's about taking it on, about being at home, getting the fans behind you and taking on a performance; not waiting for it, actually being pro-active about making things happen."
Newcastle, meanwhile, will be looking to win their first Premier League away match of the season on Monday.
If they manage to keep a clean sheet, it will be the first time they have recorded successive Premier League away clean sheets since December 2013.
