Week 27- Newcastle United to wear blue kit against Brentford

After wearing black and gold against West Ham last weekend, Newcastle will be seen in their blue third shirt when they square off against Brentford this afternoon in GW27. Victory for the Magpies will see them leapfrog the Bees in the league table.

This is the third time NUFC will be wearing the blue strip in the Premier League this season, having previously worn it against Watford and Liverpool. They took the lead in both games- Sean Longstaff scored against the Hornets, while Jonjo Shelvey netted against the Reds.
