Crystal Palace vs Newcastle: Top Two Predictions
Crystal Palace picked up a last-gasp draw at home to in-form Man Utd in midweek but the Eagles are at home to another of the Premier League's top performers on Saturday. Newcastle are challenging for the Champions League places this season as Eddie Howe continues to reshape the Magpies and make them a force to be reckoned with.
Newcastle to Win
We're backing the visitors to win this weekend as they are unbeaten in their last four meetings with the Eagles, including a League Cup penalty shoot-out victory in November. Palace had suffered three straight defeats before their draw at home to Man Utd but even that game should have ended in defeat for the Londoners. Newcastle have won three of their last six matches in all competitions, beating Fulham 1-0 last weekend.
Under 2.5 Goals
There is a good chance that this game will prove to be tight and tense throughout the 90-minutes. Under 2.5 goals have been produced in six of the last seven meetings between these two clubs in all competitions, so you can see why we're predicting another low-scoring 90-minutes on Saturday. Three of Crystal Palace's last five matches have witnessed fewer than three goals scored, while four of Newcastle's last five matches have produced under 2.5 goals.

How will the teams lineup on Saturday?
Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace managed to come away with a share of the spoils from their midweek home game against Man Utd. While Palace created some decent scoring opportunities, Man Utd always looked like the better team and took the lead through Fernandes in the 44th-minute. Ten Hag's men should have put this game to bed with a second goal but they failed to do so and in stoppage-time, Olise fired in a stunning free-kick to pinch a point for the Eagles. The hosts will be without Andersen, McArthur and Ferguson this weekend.
Predicted Lineup – Guaita (GK), Clyne, Guéhi, Mitchell, Richards, Hughes, Doucouré, Olise, Zaha, Édouard & Eze
Newcastle
Newcastle claimed a narrow victory over Fulham last weekend but needed a little help from one of their former employees. The game was poised at 0-0 when Fulham were awarded a penalty which former Magpie, Mitrovic, stepped up to take but on his run-up he slipped, causing him to miss the penalty much to the delight of the Newcastle fans. Newcastle went on to win the game in the 89th-minute via a strike from Isak who looks to be on his way to full match-fitness again. Shelvey Targett and Krafth could be joined by Guimaraes on the sideline this weekend.
Predicted Lineup – Pope (GK), Trippier, Schär, Burn, Botman, Almirón, Willock, Guimarães, Longstaff, Wilson & Joelinton
Player to Watch: Alexander Isak
Newcastle's new 23-year-old striker might have only scored 3-goals in the league this season but he looks to be getting back to near his best following a run of injuries, scoring the winning goal against Fulham last time out.
Some of the biggest clubs in Europe took a look at Isak in the summer but Newcastle ended up signing the Swedish international. Isak looks to have all the attributes to make it in the Premier League and were expecting the striker to be key to Newcastle's Champions League ambitions this season.
We've highlighted Isak as our player to watch this weekend as we think he will help guide Newcastle to victory. The former Real Sociedad man keeps getting better and better with each game that passes and seems to have put his recent injury issues behind him.
