Crystal Palace vs Newcastle United Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Both teams are yet to hit top gear this season. 

After playing an entertaining four-goal thriller against Aston Villa in the previous outing, Crystal Palace are set to take on Newcastle United in Round 13 of the Premier League on Saturday at Selhurst Park aiming to climb up from the relegation zone with a win here.  

Crystal Palace on the other hand are starting to get the results as they look to turn their season around. Although they are still lurking in the relegation zone, Oliver Glasner will be delighted with how his team are performing at the moment having gathered five Points from their previous four games. Eagles win over Tottenham Hotspur and a 2-2 draw against Aston Villa have been their highlight of the season so far. 

Newcastle United on the other hand after a difficult start to the season have finally hit gear picking up three wins from the previous four games to take a massive leap in the top half. These wins have come against Chelsea in the Carabao Cup and against Arsenal and Nottingham Forest in the league. With key players returning from injury and Alexander Isak hitting top form at the right moment, we can expect Eddie Howe’s team to start performing from here on.

Players to Watch

Jean-Philippe Mateta (⁠Crystal Palace)

Jean-Philippe Mateta had a wonderful season for Eagles last term but has struggled to find form this season having only managed to score three goals so far. Despite this, the towering forward will be the dangerous man here with his physical prowess and ability to dominate opponents in aerial duels. His linkup play has also improved this season and can prove to be helpful here to soak the pressure. 

Alexander Isak (Newcastle United) 

Alexander Isak is back to his brilliant best after scoring four goals in his previous five games. The Sweden international has been an excellent addition to the team developing into a world-class striker who is ruthless in front of the goal and doesn’t miss many chances. Isak’s movement coupled with his ability to get past opponents at ease with his pace makes him a key player here.
