Chris Sutton rants about Leicester City as he predicts the score on Monday as they host Newcastle United

Newcastle United will look to pile on the misery for Leicester City on Monday Night Football in the 8pm kick-off live on Sky Sports.

While Leicester haven't been as woeful as Southampton who look set to beat Derby County's record of the lowest points total in Premier League history, they do appear to have accepted their fate.

Their last game was against Manchester City in which they might as well not have turned up.

If Newcastle are feeling ruthless, we expect we could inflict a similar type of pasting on Monday night.

So what you're saying, Chris, is that this should be an easy game for Newcastle?

Chris Sutton absolutely tore Leicester apart in his score prediction for the BBC and even says that Newcastle could turn up with literal hangovers and beat them. This is brutal.

"Leicester should have been relegated immediately for what they did at Etihad Stadium on Wednesday.

"For a team who are desperate for a win, they showed absolutely zero attacking intent even when they went two goals down.

"All they were interested in was building a wall and just stopping Manchester City. I felt sorry for their travelling fans because the team offered no threat whatsoever, and didn't even try to score.

"I can understand that everyone has a game plan but usually that changes when you go a goal or two behind. At 2-0, however, Leicester took their star striker, Jamie Vardy, off to put another midfielder on.

"That tells you where Leicester are at right now - it felt like they were waving the white flag and going for damage limitation, rather than thinking they might as well give it a go and risk conceding more goals.

"We know how nervy Manchester City have been this season, and Leicester caused them problems when they had a go at them at the King Power Stadium at the end of last year.

"This time, there was none of that. They were pretty pathetic and you have got to question what their manager Ruud van Nistelrooy was thinking.

"His team have lost their past seven league games and have not scored in any of them, and it is even longer since they managed a point or a league goal at home.

"That is not going to change here. Newcastle got an important win over Brentford in midweek to show there was no hangover from their Carabao Cup celebrations.

"Even if they hit the hotel mini-bar again on Sunday night, it wouldn't matter - they would still beat Leicester.

"Sutton's prediction: 0-2

Sorry Leicester, but you may have to just be cannon fodder on Monday

Normally, I'd edit that down with it being such a lengthy rant that barely even mentions Newcastle, but it was just too good to cut.

However, what would be more Newcastle United than rocking up to a game where we've been tipped to win at a walking pace and to somehow get beat?

Let's hope that doesn't happen, obviously. This could be our best shot of getting our goal difference up which could be massively important in the race for Champions League.

Sorry, Leicester.
