Newcastle welcome Wolverhampton to St James Park on Sunday in the Premier League. Both teams are going into this match with different ambitions. While the Wolves are deeply involved into the relegation battle, Newcastle are hoping of top four finish. The new owners from Saudi Arabia have invested huge money and they have big expecations. Manager Eddie Howe and his players were very good in the first part of the season, but the last results are not at the same level. Newcastle suffered a painful defeat in Carabao Cup final as they were beaten 2:0 by Manchester United. The Magpies are in poor form in the Premier League, they failed to register a victory on the last five matches. Howe has the majority of his players ready for this match, but Joelinton will serve a two-game suspension after he picked up his 10th yellow card against Manchester City last weekend. Emil Krafth remains out with a long-term injury, while Fabian Schar is rated as doubtful with a facial injury suffered in the EFL Cup final. Ryan Fraser is send to the U-21 team following a fallout with the manager Howe.

Wolverhampton Wanderers are on the 13th place with 27 points.. Wolves are just four points away from the relegation zone and the situation is still complicate. New manager Lopetegui had a solid start at Molineux, though the current form is mixed - one win, one draw and one defeat on the last three league matches. They recorded a narrow 1:0 victory over Tottenham, suffered a 2:0 defeat to Liverpool and shared the points with Fulham. The Spaniard will try to take advantage of Newcastle poor form. However, he has own issues - the home form. Wolves are the division's worst scorers at home with just 10 goals. In addition, Lopetegui has some injury problems. Hugo Bueno will probably miss out with a hamstring injury, while Hwang Hee-chan and Boubacar Traore are both doubtful. Veteran striker Diego Costa, who went off injured against Tottenham, will also skip this match. Adama Traore, who scored the winning goal against the Spurs last week, is pushing for a starting place. And I think he deserves.

Newcastle vs Wolverhampton Prediction:


I expect a low scoring match at St James Park. Newcastle failed to score a single goal on the last three matches. I believe the players confidence is lower. Wolverhampton have played Under 2.5 goals on the last four league matches. The Wanderers will continue with strong defense, so I see maximum two goals here.

Newcastle vs Wolverhampton Pick
: Under 2.5 goals @ 1.75 with Pinnacle
