Betting tips: Newcastle x Newcastle
Check out our predictions of the day for Newcastle vs. Wolves
Prediction 1: Newcastle x Wolves / Draw or Wolves
Recent performances by Newcastle have been lackluster. Out of their last nine league games, they managed only two victories. The Magpies have let in two or more goals in seven of their previous eight Premier League matches. It’s an excellent bet to support the Wolves, who are currently on a roll, to come out on top at St. James’ Park, and the odds are 1.89 for this outcome.
Prediction 2: Newcastle x Wolves / Over 2.5 goals
The current form of both Newcastle and Wolves bodes well for a high-scoring encounter. This time, it’s harder to guess the outcome of a match. Nonetheless, we are betting on a minimum of three goals scored by both teams, given the level of play on the field.
Prediction 3: Newcastle x Wolves / Full time draw
The Magpies will enter this match as heavy favorites on paper because of their better home record versus Wolves. On the other hand, the Wolves are riding high because of Pedro Neto and Hwang, but Newcastle is strong, thanks to Isak and Gordon. Both teams might wind up with a point in this high-scoring thriller.
