Newcastle’s Resurgence vs Burnley’s Redemption: A Premier League Duel
Key Stats
– Burnley remain unbeaten on the road for six months since their FA Cup loss to Man City.
– Newcastle boast an impressive average BettingTips4You Expert Rating of 7.05, significantly overshadowing Burnley’s 6.72.
Newcastle United are riding high on recent successes in both the Premier League and the EFL Cup. The momentum they carry into the upcoming match at St James’ Park against Burnley is palpable. Having pulled off a shocker against Manchester City and then unleashing a record-breaking 8-0 win over Sheffield United, the Magpies have reignited their campaign. Burnley, although successful against Salford City, have had their struggles, especially in the Premier League where they’ve secured a solitary point out of a potential 18.
EFL Cup Redemption on the Horizon?
Last year’s EFL Cup ended in heartbreak for Newcastle, seeing Manchester United claim the title. But, with a stellar win over Manchester City, the club has set its sights on another chance at glory.

Their reward? A tantalising face-off against Manchester United in the next round. With the recent resurrection in form, Newcastle’s current trajectory promises an exciting matchup.
Burnley’s Road to Redemption
Burnley, led by Vincent Kompany, managed to net four times in their recent cup tie, showcasing their offensive prowess. Yet, their Premier League journey has been more arduous. They’ve struggled to gather points and, despite a commendable effort against Manchester United, fell short. Interestingly, their away record offers a glimmer of hope, remaining unbeaten for six months since an FA Cup defeat at Man City. The Clarets will undoubtedly be seeking inspiration from Newcastle’s recent turnaround.
Team News and Predicted Line-ups
Newcastle face a blow with Harvey Barnes set for an extended absence. Along with him, Willock and Krafth are sidelined. However, reinforcements are expected with Trippier, Schar, Guimaraes, Gordon, and Almiron potentially returning to the starting eleven.
Burnley’s concerns revolve around Manuel’s ankle injury, whose extent is still undetermined. Players like Ekdal, Churlinov, Obafemi, and Foster are missing for various reasons. Gudmundsson’s calf problem remains a concern. Yet, Zaroury’s exemplary performance against Salford City might earn him a starting spot.
Predicted Line-ups:
Newcastle United: Pope; Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn; Longstaff, Guimaraes, Anderson; Almiron, Wilson, Gordon
Burnley: Trafford; Roberts, Al-Dakhil, Beyer, Taylor; Cullen, Brownhill; Koleosho, Ramsey, Zaroury; Amdouni
Diving into the Stats
Newcastle United have been in stellar form with an average BettingTips4You Expert Rating of 7.05, ranking them 7th in the league. Their attack is prolific, averaging 2.7 goals, and they maintain a healthy ball possession of 52%. Defensively, they’ve secured two clean sheets.
Burnley, however, face challenges with an average rating of 6.72, placing them 19th. They’ve found the net less frequently, averaging 0.8 goals and conceded 13 goals.
Predictions
1. Match Outcome: A Magpies Win With the momentum undoubtedly in Newcastle’s favour, they’re primed to take the three points against Burnley. Having toppled the giant Manchester City 1-0 in the EFL Cup recently, and following their emphatic 8-0 victory against Sheffield United, the Magpies’ confidence is sky-high. Additionally, their record of four games unbeaten, paired with an impressive run of clean sheets, only further strengthens their case. On the other side, Burnley have struggled this Premier League season, with just one point from 18 possible. History also tells us Newcastle have the edge: the last Premier League season saw Burnley beaten by the Magpies in both fixtures.
2. Predicted Scoreline: 3-1 to Newcastle The attacking prowess displayed by Newcastle in recent matches, notably the jaw-dropping 8-0 victory, paints them as the dominant force going into this match. Their attacking stats showcase an average of 2.7 goals scored per match this season. However, Burnley’s knack of scoring from inside the box, albeit less frequently, suggests they may find the back of the net. A 3-1 win for Newcastle seems a balanced forecast, respecting both teams’ recent form and attacking intent.
3. Goalscorer Prediction: Alexander Isak to Score Alexander Isak, with his recent match-winning goal against Manchester City and 3 goals in the Premier League so far, is the man in form for Newcastle. With the home advantage and Burnley’s leaky defence that concedes an average of 2.6 goals per game, Isak will surely fancy his chances. His prowess, combined with Burnley’s defence errors that have led to goals this season, makes him a prime candidate to get on the scoresheet.
4. Corner Kicks: Newcastle to Win the Corner Count, Total Corners Over 10.5 Newcastle’s attacking zeal has them averaging 14.5 shots per game, with 4.5 of them being corners. This indicates their tendency to push opponents deep into their half. In contrast, Burnley, with 6 corners on average, also show an inclination to force corners, especially when trailing. Given both teams’ style of play and the anticipated game flow, it’s likely the match will see more than 10.5 corners in total. Considering Newcastle’s superior attacking stats and home advantage, they’re expected to edge Burnley in the corner count.
