Newcastle United v Wolverhampton Wanderers: head-to-head

The reverse fixture at Molineux in October ended in a 2-2 draw with Newcastle United twice going ahead through Callum Wilson before twice being pegged back. At St James Park, Newcastle United are unbeaten in four matches against Wolves, winning the past two. Last season’s corresponding fixture ended 2-1 to the home side.

Betting tips

If you’re looking for a goal scorer for the hosts then Anthony Gordon could be a shrewd choice. Callum Wilson is injured and Alexander Isak is only just finding his feet after an injury layoff of his own and this clears the way for Anthony Gordon once more. Gordon has scored in two of Newcastle United’s last three home league games and also opened the scoring in the FA Cup in midweek. Gordon is priced at 23/10 to score at any time on Saturday.

In eleven previous meetings between these sides in the Premier League, Newcastle United have never failed to score. Over 0.5 team goals for the hosts looks an inevitability at 1/10 but over 1.5 goals for the hosts is backable at 8/13. Whilst Newcastle United have the advantage in recent head-to-heads, it is Wolves that head into the weekend in the better form. We’re going to sit on the fence and predict a score-draw at odds of 33/10 St James Park.
