Crystal Palace will play Newcastle at home in one of the matches of the eighth round of the Premier League on October 25. The Eagles beat the magpies in their last face-to-face meeting on their own field, but today they are in the line of bookmakers as an underdog. What can you expect from the game and what bets should you pay attention to? - the answer is in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Crystal Palace
Current form
Crystal Palace has not shown any stable performance since the beginning of the season. The Eagles can play a single match at a high level, but they can also fail outright, as they did in the last round with Brighton (0-5). In the Premier League standings, the Londoners are in 16th place with seven points. Last week, Crystal Palace played a good match in the Europa League away from Besiktas (2-2). In that game, Mateta, one of the main scorers, returned to the lineup and scored a goal. In LE, the Eagles scored four points in three rounds and occupy the intermediate 15th place.
Disqualifications and injuries
Riad and Tomiyasu will not play in the match due to injuries. Henderson, Larsen, and Timber are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
In three of the last four matches involving Crystal Palace, there has been an exchange of goals scored.
In five of the previous six matches, the Londoners had more than two offsides
Newcastle does not compete in European competitions, but even in such conditions, with a busy schedule, they do not achieve much success. The Magpies have scored eight points in seven rounds played and are in 14th place in the table. After a 2-1 home victory over Hull, Matthias Jaissle's team were defeated by Coventry 1-4 away from Aston Villa in the next two rounds (0:1). Since the beginning of the season, Newcastle has scored only a win at the start over the crisis Tottenham (2-0), while conceding eight goals in two lost matches.
Disqualifications and injuries
Jauen and Livramento are injured, Elanga and Ramsey are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
In three of the last four matches, Newcastle lost after the opening 45 minutes.
Newcastle players were offside more often than their opponents in four consecutive matches.
The rivals are having an unsuccessful start in the Premier League, but even on the road in the bookmaker's line, Newcastle gets the status of the favorite. The Magpies have lost their last two matches away, conceding eight goals, it is unlikely that with such a defensive game they are ready to score three points today. Crystal Palace does not have a stable game, but the day before they played a good match against Besiktas, one of the best attacking players, Mateta, returned to the lineup, able to use his moment. The Eagles have not lost to the magpies on their own field since 2020, and we believe that today they will have no less chance of three points than their opponent.
Our prediction is that Crystal Palace will win with an Asian handicap (0) for a coefficient of 2.15
Since the beginning of the season, both teams have not demonstrated a stable and reliable defensive game. Crystal Palace conceded 17 goals, while Newcastle conceded 14. It is unlikely that with such a defense, the opponents will be able to win back to zero today.
The second bet is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.52
Betting on corners
Crystal Palace have frankly weak corner scores: they lost to their opponents in six of the previous seven matches. Based on this trend, we recommend another bet on the match.
Prediction – Newcastle win on corners with a coefficient of 1.98
