Concedes one against Magpies

Ellborg registered three saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 2-1 win over Newcastle United.

Analysis: Ellborg would make three saves Sunday while allowing one goal, a decent match for the keeper. However, it is a second straight league game without a clean sheet, remaining at one in his minimal three league appearances. He continues in the starting role for now as Robin Roefs (hamstring) recovers, although it is up in the air who will start against Tottenham on April 12 when play resumes.

Three saves in home loss

Ellborg made three saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-0 loss versus Brighton.

Analysis: Ellborg made three saves in a rare start as he replaced the injured Robin Roefs (hamstring). He has started the last three games in all competitions and has only conceded two goals in the three games, keeping one clean sheet. In his two Premier Leeague games he has made three or more saves on both occassions.
