Our Predictions & Betting Tips for Leeds vs Newcastle
Here are our Premier League predictions for Saturday's early kick-off which has implications at both ends of the table. Sam Allardyce takes charge of his first home game as Leeds manager and goes up against one of his former employers. Leeds really need to win this game but Newcastle have plenty of motivation for the points as well with a Champions League spot within touching distance.

Over 2.5 Goals & Both Teams to Score
Our Leeds vs Newcastle prediction is all about goals. Four of the last six league meetings between these two clubs have ended with both teams getting on the scoreboard and with both teams needing a positive result, we're expecting both teams to score on Saturday. Both teams have scored and over 2.5 goals have been produced in five of Leeds' and four of Newcastle's last six outings in the Premier League, adding further weight to our prediction.
Callum Wilson to Score
Our second Leeds vs Newcastle prediction delves into the Anytime Goalscorer market. Callum Wilson top scores for Newcastle this season with 15-goals in the Premier League alone, and we're backing the former Bournemouth and Coventry striker to find the back of the net against Leeds on Saturday. With 8-goals in his last eight outings for Newcastle, Wilson is in great form right now and goes up against a leaky Leeds defence this weekend.

Leeds vs Newcastle Lineups
Leeds
Sam Allardyce faced the toughest of tough games on his Leeds United debut, going down 2-1 in the end but it could have been a lot worse. Two goals from Gundogan in the opening 27-minutes put Man City 2-0 up at the break. Haaland was off form in this game, missing some easy chances by his standard and Gundogan had the chance to complete his hat trick from the penalty spot but fluffed his lines and Leeds went up the other end of the pitch and pulled a goal back through Rodrigo to setup a nervy final few moments to the game. Cooper, Sinisterra, Dallas and Adams are the main injury concerns for the home side this weekend.
Predicted Lineup – Robles (GK), Ayling, Firpo, Wöber, Kristensen, Forshaw, Roca, Harrison, McKennie, Bamford & Gnonto
Newcastle
Newcastle would have been expecting a tough game at home to title-chasing Arsenal, and that's just what they got. Both teams gave it their all during the 90-minutes but only the Gunners converted a couple of their chances. A goal from Odegaard and and own goal from Schar handed Arteta's men a 2-0 victory in the end. Lascelles, Krafth, Longstaff, Saint-Maximin and Fraser could all miss the trip to Yorkshire due to injury.
Predicted Lineup – Pope (GK), Trippier, Schär, Burn, Botman, Murphy, Willock, Guimarães, Wilson, Joelinton & Isak
Starting Lineups

Player to Watch: Joelinton
Newcastle's 26-year-old forward-turned-midfielder has made himself irreplaceable in the Magpies' starting eleven this season and we're backing him to put in another top performance against Leeds on Saturday.
The Brazilian will need to be at his best in what should be a tough game. Sam Allardyce takes charge of his first home game as Leeds manager and will be desperate to secure all 3pts so we're expecting Leeds to take the game to their guests.
Joelinton has often controlled the midfield for Newcastle this season, winning the ball back, starting attacks and getting in the box to score a few goals as well. Can Leeds handle the big Brazilian or will Joelinton dominate once again?
