Newcastle United striker will attempt to replicate a feat most recently achieved by club legend Alan Shearer in Saturday's Premier League clash with Liverpool.
The Magpies, who occupy fourth place, are enjoying a memorable campaign as they attempt to qualify for the Champions League.
Their progress has shown signs of slowing in recent weeks after playing out consecutive 1-1 draws against West Ham United and Bournemouth.
Nevertheless, they still sit two points clear of fifth-place Tottenham Hotspur, who have played a game more.
As they prepare for a crucial Premier League meeting with Liverpool, the Magpies will be discouraged by the fact that they are winless in their last 12 top-flight games against the Reds.

In the reverse fixture, summer signing Alexander Isak saw his debut goal cancelled out by a Roberto Firmino effort before Fabio Carvalho scored a dramatic winner in the eighth minute of stoppage time to secure Liverpool all three points.
That result still represents the Magpies' only Premier League defeat of the season, and while Isak finished on the losing side on that occasion, he will be hoping to play a part in a Newcastle victory on Saturday.
After finding the net in the reverse fixture, the Sweden international has the chance to become the first person to score in home and away league games against Liverpool in the same season since Shearer achieved the feat in the 1999-00 campaign.
Newcastle also lost the away meeting 2-1 in that season, but they held the Reds to a 2-2 draw in the home game thanks to goals from Shearer and Duncan Ferguson.
Although Eddie Howe will be keen for his side to claim their first league win over Liverpool since December 2015, the Newcastle boss may be content with picking up a point from Saturday's contest.
