New castle are looking to bring an end to their three-game losing streak in the Premier League on Friday night when they play host to European hopefuls Wolves. The visitors have been in mixed form of late, winning three and losing three of their last six league games, so it's hard to know which Wolves side will turn up at St James's Park.

Draw
Five of the last six league meetings between Newcastle and Wolves have ended in stalemates, so you can already start to see why we're backing Friday's clash to end in a draw. Both Newcastle and Wolves have won three and lost three of their last six outings in the Premier League but the recent history between the two clubs suggests that they will cancel one another out on Friday.
BTTS
There is a good chance that we will be treated to goals at both ends of the pitch on Friday as each of the last six league meetings between these two clubs have seen both teams score. Both teams have also scored in three of Newcastle's last five outings, while each of Wolves' last two fixtures have also produced goals at both ends of the pitch.

A close and competitive 90-minutes on the cards
Newcastle started brightly away at Tottenham last time out, taking the lead in the 39th-minute through Schar, but Spurs equalised 4-minutes later and the pair went in level at the break. The second forty-five belonged to the home side as Tottenham moved through the gears, scoring 4-goals without reply, to win the game 5-1. Despite that result, Newcastle remain 9pts above the drop zone and it's hard to see Eddie Howe's men getting dragged back into the relegation battle.
Newcastle Predicted Lineup: Dúbravka, Schär, Burn, Manquillo, Targett, Shelvey, Fraser, Saint-Maximin, Willock, Wood & Joelinton
Wolves had the home advantage against Midland's rivals Aston Villa, where a goal from Jonny put the home side in front after 7-minutes. An own goal from Ashley Young in the 36th-minute put the home side into a commanding lead heading into the break. Wolves kept things tight at the back for the majority of the second half but Villa did earn and convert an 86th-minute penalty to make the last moment of the game nervy. However, Wolves held on to secure an important 3pts in their bid to earn European football next season.
Wolves Predicted Lineup: Sá, Marçal, Boly, Coady, Dendoncker, Jonny, Kilman, Moutinho, Podence, Trincão & Silva
