It takes some believing. but Newcastle are unbeaten in their past four home league games against reigning top-flight champions.
And one fact that stands out in Newcastle United records ... in the Premier League era ... only David Ginola (66.7%) and Laurent Robert (65.2%) have scored a higher ratio from outside the box than Jonjo Shelvey (64.7%).
What's next?
Newcastle are at Sheffield United on Thursday (19:30 GMT).
