Newcastle vs Norwich Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by James | in Premier League Predictions
Newcastle hope to keep up a run of positive results in the top flight this weekend when they host Norwich at St. James's Park. The Magpies are unbeaten in their last three games, mostly thanks to their habit of scoring stoppage-time goals to salvage points. Only four points off fifth place, Newcastle are fighting a congested battle to make the European places. Way down in 14th place, they are one of ten teams within that aforementioned four-point gap below the top four. Results have been better than performances suggest, largely due to the fact that Newcastle score from unexpected positions through unexpected sources. Take their recent 2-2 draw at Everton: It was secured thanks to two goals scored after the 90th minute by Florian Lejeune. That's strange because Lejeune is a central defender who had never scored in his 44 Newcastle appearances prior to then. Oh, and he was a substitute. Only Liverpool have better returns from their expected goals record in the Premier League. Norwich will need eyes everywhere.
The Canaries are bottom of the league, six points from safety. If an abundance of eyes isn't available then Norwich boss Daniel Farke will need to ensure that the ones at his disposal stay open. Their defence (which has conceded the most goals in the division) has been caught sleeping too many times this season. Only one clean sheet in their last six games suggests a stronger backline will be required to climb back to safety. Norwich won the reverse fixture 3-1 back in August but goals have dried up since those days of summery optimism. Only one of their last ten Premier League games saw them score more than one goal. We see another afternoon of misfiring this Saturday. Back under 2.5 goals.

Our Newcastle vs Norwich Prediction
The last five meetings between Newcastle and Norwich have averaged 5.6 goals per game. So we're sticking our necks out here by predicting a low-scoring tumbleweed-cameoing sleeper hold of a Premier League tie. The historical record loses out to the statistical evidence at our disposal this season. Neither teams scores very many goals (they each average a goal per game), which is why we're suggesting an under 2.5 goals bet.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
