LiontipsNewcastle United vs Everton. Prediction and Betting Tips for English Premier League (February 8, 2022).
Command Analysis
Newcastle are having a woeful season. The Magpies failed to pass the first round of the League Cup, and suffered a defeat to Cambridge United, the residents of League One, in the FA Cup (0:1).
The Geordiesare struggling to get out of the relegation zone. After 21 rounds of the Premier League, Eddie Howe's men have only 15 points from two victories and nine draws. Newcastle are currently 19th in the standings. That being said, the Magpies have actually been successful in the last three matches. They drew against Manchester United (1:1) and Watford (1:1), and got the upper hand over Leeds United (1:0).
The hosts can't call upon services of Hayden, Fernandez, Ritchie, Dummett, Wilson, and Lewis, who are all ruled out without a return date.
Everton are in poor form. In the last five matches of the Premier League, they managed to earn only one point when they tied against Chelsea (1:1) in December. In total, the Toffees have chalked up 19 points from five victories and four draws. These results put them in 16th place in the tournament table.
Everton were more successful in the FA Cup so far. They had a tough game against Hull City (3:2) and crushed Brentford with a score of 4:1. Two days ago, Frank Lampard was appointed new head coach for Everton.
Delph, Davies, Godfrey and Doucoure are sidelined through injury. Calvert-Lewin is still a doubt for this game.

Tip and bets

Our prediction - Asian handicap (0) to Newcastle
We do not expect an exciting open game with a large number of scoring chances. Both opponents are unimpressive on the offensive and will likely fight for posession in midfield.
Second bet - total under 2.5 goals
