I don't think "form" is the right word because both teams have struggled since Christmas.

It won't be a case of "who is the best team" ... more a case of "who is the WORST"!

The Magpies have lost their last four matches to the Wearsiders, but Dick Advocaat's men are currently on a seven-match winless run, which sees them sit just one point above the relegation zone.

Newcastle have also struggled for form of late as they have lost their last three matches on the spin, leaving boss John Carver under pressure going into the derby game.

Williamson told the Shields Gazette: "I think you can rip the form book up when it comes to that game.

"It's a great spectacle. I thoroughly enjoy playing in them – the atmosphere, the pressure and the intensity of it is brilliant.

"I've played in quite a few and I don't need to get myself up for it – I know what it's all about."
