🗞️ Team News: Newcastle United

Sven Botman (Broken kneecap), Jamaal Lascelles (Fitness) and Lewis Hall (Ankle surgery) are unavailable for Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe.

It’s our opinion that The Magpies should go for a 4-3-3 formation for this one with Nick Pope, Kieran Trippier, Fabian Schaer, Daniel Burn, Valentino Livramento, Bruno Guimaraes, Sandro Tonali, Joelinton, Jacob Murphy, Alexander Isak and Harvey Barnes.

ℹ️ Team News: Crystal Palace

We’re of the thinking that The Eagles will likely utilise a 4-4-2 lineup, choosing Dean Henderson, Chris Richards, Maxence Lacroix, Marc Guehi, Daniel Munoz, Will Hughes, Jefferson Lerma, Tyrick Mitchell, Ismaila Sarr, Eberechi Eze and Jean-Philippe Mateta.

💭 Prediction

We envisage that Newcastle United look likely to get the goals that they need against Crystal Palace, who might well find it difficult getting goals.

Our tip is for a decent 2-0 winning margin for Newcastle United at the end of the match.
