Newcastle Recent Form — Last 5
Crystal Palace Recent Form — Last 5
Key Factors
Newcastle's ten-match unbeaten streak at St James' Park combined with Crystal Palace's winless away form suggests the hosts will maintain tactical control and likely secure a comfortable victory.
The simultaneous loss of Ismaila Sarr to AFCON and injuries to key creators like Daichi Kamada significantly diminishes Palace's counter-attacking threat, which will protect Newcastle's injury-hit defensive line.
Newcastle's historical dominance over Palace at home, including two recent heavy wins (4-0 and 5-0) and four consecutive home clean sheets in this specific fixture, provides a psychological platform for the Magpies to attack with confidence.
Injuries & Absentees
Newcastle is managing a defensive crisis with Botman, Burn, and Livramento out, though Trippier's potential return provides stability; Palace is severely weakened by the absence of Sarr (AFCON) and injuries to Munoz, Riad, and Kamada.
