Newcastle United Betting Preview
Newcastle currently sits in 6th place in the standings having picked up 41 points. Last Saturday Newcastle United faced off against Manchester City and they were defeated 2-0. Newcastle United had 43 percent of the possession and two shots on target, but they couldn’t find the back of the net. Newcastle hasn’t scored in any of the last three games. Joelinton picked up his 10th yellow card in the last game which means he’s now suspended for this game. Fabian Schar is dealing with a facial injury but he could move back into the starting lineup for this game. In this game, Newcastle needs to find a way to get the offense going.
Wolves Betting Preview
On the other side of this matchup is the Wolves who sit in 13th place in the standings having picked up 27 points. Last Saturday against Tottenham Hotspur, the Wolves scored one goal and that was enough to secure the victory. Two games ago against Liverpool they were defeated 2-0. Jonny is expected to stay in the starting linup for the Wolves in this game. Hwang Hee-chan and Boubacar Traore are both dealing with injuries and neither guy is expected to start in this game. Adama Traore is another player that is expected to stay in the starting lineup in this game.
Shane’s Free Pick
The Wolves are a strong defensive team but I still don’t trust their offense and their lack of scoring is going to continue here. Newcastle has failed to score in each of their last three games and they are going to struggle to get anything good going here. Look for a 0-0 or 1-0 type of game and this game is going to stay under the total. Back the under 1.5 goals to cash here.
