Tip and bets
In the first Premier League game of the season, both teams will try to be careful on defense and earn points. No more than 2 goals were scored in 7 of the last 9 head-to-head matches, and we doubt there will be too many scoring chances tonight. Take the under.
Our prediction — total under 2.5 goals
Both teams are extremely motivated. The Tricky Trees are excited to be back and will definitely put up a fight, but Newcastle have home advantage and a stronger team. A draw would satisfy both sides.
Second bet — draw
