Wolves vs Newcastle Predicted lineup, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast | Premier League 2024-25
The Magpies are unbeaten in the last five encounters against the Wolves.
The Wolves haven’t been at their best this season after failing to win their league matches. Currently, Gary O’Neil’s team are languishing in the 18th position with just one point from three games.
While they have managed to score three goals in the same number of games, it is the defensive vulnerability that has raised eyebrows this season. Already the team has conceded nine goals which is the second most in the league behind Everton who have conceded ten.
Meanwhile, Newcastle United have started the new season in brilliant form despite missing a number of their key players. Eddie Howe has done a magnificent job of keeping the Magpies unbeaten this season by pulling some impressive victories on the road.
The Toons started the season with a 1-0 victory over Southampton and followed it up with a draw and a win against Bournemouth and Tottenham in the last game. Securing a win over a top-six team in the form of Tottenham can only boost their confidence in getting better as the season goes on.

Players to Watch
Matheus Cunha (Wolves)
Matheus Cunha finished last season as the top scorer for Wolves after scoring 14 goals while also providing another eight assists. He remains their main threat in this match as he can cause several problems to the Magpies backline with his excellent movements and runs which allows the other attackers to attack the free space. Cunha has already showcased his brilliance after netting a brilliant goal against Chelsea in Match day two.
Alexander Isak (Newcastle United)
Alexander Isak has to be among one of the best signings Newcastle have made over the last few years after he surprised everyone with his performance in the last two seasons. Last season was a fantastic season for him after netting 21 goals for them after starting from the first minute of the match in 27 matches. Isak also opened his account for the new season with a brilliant goal against Tottenham which earned his side a well-deserved win.
