Newcastle vs Wolves Prediction & Betting Tips (2 March)

Not at the expected level this season, Newcastle are currently only 10th in the Premier League and will therefore have to raise their level to achieve European qualification. After a series of poor results, the Magpies showed a revival by lining up 4 matches without a setback in the championship, 2 wins and 2 draws. They unfortunately fell back last weekend with a heavy defeat conceded at Arsenal 4-1. This week, Newcastle had to work hard to overcome, away from home, Blackburn in the round of 16 of the FA Cup 1-1, qualifying following penalties. Wolverhampton is currently 9th in the Premier League and has 1 point ahead of his opponent of the day.

Depending on the identity of the FA Cup winner, European qualification still appears possible. Pedro Neto's teammates are on the rise at the moment and have bagged 6 victories in the last 9 days, for 1 draw and 2 defeats. After being surprised at home by Brentford 0-2, they resumed their march forward by winning against Tottenham 1-2 and Sheffield United last weekend 1-0. This week, Wolverhampton booked their ticket to the FA Cup quarter-finals by dominating Brighton 1-0.

In the Newcastle infirmary, take place the number 1 goalkeeper Pope, the executives Joelinton and Wilson and the midfielder Andersen. The latter was able to play again this week in the FA Cup but unfortunately has to withdraw this Saturday. Added to this is the suspension of midfielder Tonali but also the small uncertainty surrounding the participation of senior defender Sven Botman. Note that the doorman Dubravka is present.

Returning to the field last weekend after a long absence, midfielder Willock came on and took the opportunity to score. In the offensive domain, we should notably find Gordon (8 goals and 5 assists in PL) and Isak (10 goals in PL). In midfield, former Lyonnais Bruno Guimaraes shines.
