Predictions For North -East Derby

Newcastle will take on Middlesbrough in a classic encounter today as Mark Viduka returns back to his former club.

My predictions goes as Newcastle will ran 3 goals winners at the Riverside as we can see how improved the dressing room has been since Big Sam taken charge.

Newcastle will be without Shay Given (groin strain), Babayaro (groin), Joey Barton (broken Metatarsal) and Damien Duff (ankle surgery).
