Ticket details

This will be the second game Gillett has officiated this term after overseeing Leicester City's 2-2 draw against Brentford on the opening weekend of the 2022/23 campaign, showing no cards at the King Power Stadium. 

The Australian official, born in Queensland, made history last season after becoming the first overseas referee to take charge of a Premier League fixture during Newcastle's 1-1 draw away at Watford in September 2021.

The 35-year-old whistler, who was promoted to the Select Group in June 2021, was also the man in the middle for the Magpies' 2-1 home win against Leicester in April 2022 and booked four players that day, including Emil Krafth and Bruno Guimarães.
