Newcastle enters Saturday’s match on a four-match winning streak, moving the team into the top half of the Premier League. After being relegated after the 2015-16 season, the team returned to the EPL for 2017-18 and has consistently produced mid-table results since then.
Newcastle has won its last two games via shutout, including a 3-0 win over Norwich City on Saturday, with Joelinton scoring a pair of goals and Bruno Guimaraes adding a third for the team. Newcastle took 13 shots, with seven on target.
The Magpies are outperforming expectations right now, as their minus-15 goal differential is seventh-worst in the league. The only other team in the top half with a negative goal differential is Leicester City, which is in 10th place with a minus-four differential.
Predicted Newcastle starting XI: Target, Burn, Lascelles, Krafth, Willock, Guimaraes, Longstaff, Saint-Maximin, Joelinton, Murphy; Dúbravka
