Newcastle vs Crystal Palace betting tips and summary
Newcastle to win – Home favourites
Both teams to score – Strong trend
Bruno Guimaraes to score or assist – On form, decent data
Newcastle have managed back-to-back wins on only one occasion this season, a key reason for Eddie Howe’s side languishing in mid-table.
The Magpies have impressed at home, winning five and drawing two from their first nine, although they blew a 2-0 lead against Chelsea last time out at home.
The visitors are enduring a rocky run of form; however, they may have a fresh face in the squad, as Brennan Johnson is finalising a move to the Eagles.
Oliver Glasner’s Palace side have picked up just one point in their last four, a run that has seen them drop to ninth in the table.
Away from home has been very positive for Crystal Palace, as only three teams can better their 16 points picked up on the road.
The visitors will be hoping to reverse last season’s result, which ended in a 5-0 victory for the hosts.
