Newcastle vs Wolves Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Devesh Jaganath in Premier League Predictions
Newcastle United will be aiming to extend their sensational run of form in the Premier League when they host Wolverhampton Wanderers at St. James’ Park on Wednesday night. The Magpies are in fifth place in the league standings while Wolves are 17th after 20 games. Check out our match prediction below!
After beating this opponent 2-1 on the road in the reverse fixture, Newcastle have now won four of their last six Premier League matches against Wolves. A win for the Magpies here would mark the first time they complete the league double over this opponent since 1905-06. Wolves have lost each of their last three league visits to St. James’ Park and have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last nine at the venue.
Given their superb recent record, the hosts are unsurprisingly inserted as short-priced favourites in this contest. Let’s break down some of the important stats at play in this one.

Newcastle - Wolves: Form Analysis
Newcastle United have been on an absolute tear in recent weeks, and after beating Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 last time out, they are now riding a five-match winning streak in the top flight.
Across all competitions, the Magpies have won each of their last eight matches in succession. Another victory this week will mark the first time they have won six league games in a row since December 2022.
At home, the hosts are unbeaten in their last three league games, keeping clean sheets in two of those matches (W2 D1 L0), and they have only tasted defeat twice at St. James’ Park this season.
Newcastle have scored two or more goals in seven consecutive Premier League games!
Meanwhile, after taking seven points from their final three games of 2024, Wolverhampton Wanderers were stopped in their tracks last time out, beaten 3-0 at home by Nottingham Forest.
That result marked the sixth time in the last eight league games that Wolves conceded two or more goals - they possess the worst defensive record in the league this season with 45 goals conceded.
The visitors failed to win any of their first five away games this season but are now aiming for a third straight match without defeat following a win against Leicester and a draw away to Spurs.

Newcastle & Wolves Squad Analysis
Newcastle United’s first-leg triumph over Arsenal in the Carabao Cup may have come at some cost, with key players Alexander Isak and Sven Botman both sustaining minor injuries in the victory.
Eddie Howe gave Newcastle fans some optimism around the in-form Swede’s fitness following their FA Cup win though, stating that Isak was rested so he could work with the physio to be available this week.
Isak has scored in each of his last seven league matches since the start of December!
In terms of confirmed absentees, the hosts will be without Nick Pope (knee), Callum Wilson (hamstring) Emil Kraft (broken collarbone) and Jamaal Lascelles (cruciate ligament). Harvey Barnes and Joe Willock are listed as doubts.
For the visitors, Nelson Semedo (hamstring), Yerson Mosquera (knee) and Enso Gonzalez (cruciate ligament) are ruled out for the foreseeable future due to injury.
Sasa Kalajdzic is closing in on a return but is unlikely to feature until the end of the month, while Boubacar Traore is only expected to return to first-team action in February.

Our Newcastle vs Wolves Prediction
There are a few minor concerns around the fitness of Isak coming into this match, but Howe seemed confident that the in-form forward will be good to go this week, which does not bode well for Wolves.
The visitors have made significant improvement in the last few weeks, but they are still the worst defence in the top flight, having already shipped 45 goals in 20 games. The hosts are the form side at present and we fancy them to get the win and few goals in this one as well. Our Newcastle United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers prediction is Newcastle United wins & over 2.5.
Newcastle vs Wolves - Other Interesting Predictions
Alexander Isak to score anytime.
The Swede has scored 13 goals in 18 league appearances this season, nine of which have come in his last seven games, and we fancy him adding to his tally here against the worst defence in the Prem.
