The Magpies are playing in a difficult schedule, they failed in the Champions League with Barcelona the day before and left the tournament. Will the guests be able to take their chance and score points today? - the answer is in our betting tip. What reliable bets can you place in a match?
Command Analysis
Newcastle United
Current form
Newcastle is approaching the upcoming match after a complete defeat away from Barcelona in the Champions League. A 2-7 defeat left the Magpies out of the tournament. At the same time, we remember that in the home match with the Catalans, the magpies were close to victory, but did not hold the advantage in the end (1:1). As a result, Eddie Howe's players now have no other options but to make a strong finish in the Premier League and cling to the European Cup. It will not be easy to do this, as Newcastle is only 11th and seven points behind the top 5. In the last round, there was an important 1-0 away win over Chelsea.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kraft, Cher, Bruno and Miley are traumatized, Tonali is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
In three of Newcastle's last five matches, a draw was recorded in the first half.
There has been an exchange of goals in six of the previous seven league games.
Sunderland, quite predictably, could not withstand the competition in the fight for European Cup places. At the moment, the black cats occupy the 13th place in the table and can only compete for the top ten, which will be a decent success for them. In the last round, Regis Le Brice's team lost to Brighton (0:1). It should be noted that Sunderland has not had much success on the road throughout the season: only 14 points scored in 15 matches played.
Disqualifications and injuries
They will miss the game due to injuries to Bi, Mandl, Angulo and Traore. Ballard, Le Feu, Mandava, Mukiele, Rufs are in question.
Interesting betting trends
Sunderland have not won 11 of their previous 14 Premier League matches.
In five of Sunderland's last seven Premier League matches, at least one of the opponents did not score goals.
Obviously, the Newcastle players will try to rehabilitate themselves in front of the fans today for the failure in the Champions League. And the magpies have nowhere to retreat, given the lag behind the European Cup zone. Despite the busy schedule, Eddie Howe's men won in the previous two rounds of the Premier League. Towards the end of the season, Sunderland noticeably slowed down, and in general, it performs poorly on the road. We expect the Magpies to score three points today.
Our betting tip is that Newcastle will win by a factor of 1.70
Matches involving Newcastle are regularly highly productive, the magpies themselves boldly play in attack, but at the same time they allow their opponents a lot at their gates. In eight of Newcastle's last ten games, more than two goals have been scored, which we are waiting for today.
The second bet is a total of more than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.88
Betting on corners
Clearly, Newcastle is betting on victory, will go forward with great strength and is highly likely to win confidently on the corners. Moreover, in 13 of the last 17 matches, the Magpies have taken more corners than their opponents.
Prediction – Newcastle win on corners with a handicap (-2.5) with a coefficient of 1.83
