Newcastle vs AFC Wimbledon Prediction & Betting Tips (1 October)

Newcastle have not had too much luck against AFC Wimbledon of late, with the Newcastle emerging victorious from just very few of the last 16 competitive meetings between the two sides. Unfortunately for the AFC Wimbledon outfit, come into this contest in fantastic form, with their coach charges boasting eight wins from ten games recently.

Since losing home, AFC Wimbledon have been involved in 37 consecutive top-flight away games in which three goals or fewer have been netted. Although Newcastle cannot compete with the consistency shown by their visitors, it is true that 16 of their last 20 matches at the top table of the EFL Cup have also been of the under 3.5 goals variety.

Newcastle home games in the EFL Cup have certainly been full of excitement recently, with both teams on target in 11 of their previous 16 encounters. AFC Wimbledon are no strangers to hitting the back of the net on their travels either, doing so in 17 of their last 19 trips at this level, so goals are expected at both ends when the sides lock horns.
