Newcastle United are encouraging supporters to turn St. James' Park into a sea of black and white this weekend when the Magpies entertain Sunderland in the hotly-anticipated Tyne-Wear derby.
As part of #blackandwhitederby, United supporters are asked to dig out their favourite black and white matchday attire, including any replica shirts, scarves, hats, jackets and more.
Newcastle approach the game with an unblemished home record in their last four outings, with victories over Leicester, Liverpool, QPR and Chelsea and only one goal conceded - against the table-topping Blues - in that time.
Supporters can use the hashtag #blackandwhitederby on the Club's official social media accounts to send in their favourite pictures in matchday attire, with the best 30 shown on the big screen in front of a sell-out crowd at the match on Sunday lunchtime.

United are also backing the fan-led A Derby to be Proud of initiative, which aims to champion the passionate rivalry between the clubs without any violence or discrimination. To find out more, please visit www.fsf.org.uk.
