West Brom vs Newcastle Utd Prediction & Betting tips
Newcastle United is just in the corner where the blows fall and West Bromwich Albion undoubtedly can benefit. The first game without Tony Pulis went well for WBA.
West Brom :
West Bromwich Albion sacked Tony Pulis last week as head coach and it seems that Alan Pardew will take over his role. So far it is Gary Megson who is the interim manager and he has done so well in his only match so far. In any case, he has ensured that WBA did not fall under the degradation line.
Just like Swansea a while ago, WBA got a point at Tottenham Hotspur. In Wembley it became 1-1. A very early goal from Rondon put WBA in the lead and that lead would hold for more than an hour, until Harry Kane with another fifteen minutes on the clock made the equalizer. Since then Tottenham tried to make the winning, but WBA was relatively easy.
It was striking to see how organized WBA played. Apparently that was a relic of Pulis’s time, or Megson was able to implement his play on the team in a very short time. However, the former seems more likely and it certainly creates a lot of confidence in the selection of WBA, because getting a point at Tottenham is not given every relegation candidate.
Newcastle Utd:
Rafael BenÃtez is in heavy weather with his Newcastle United. The Magpies currently occupy the fourteenth place in the Premier League and the gap with the relegation zone is four points, so there is no man overboard yet. But if Newcastle United loses to West Bromwich Albion, which is seventeenth, WBA Newcastle approaches three points. And then it gets a lot hotter under the feet of the selection.
Last weekend, Newcastle United went home with 0-3 against Watford. Offensive, in particular, it was distressing to see how little Newcastle could play, while on paper the players did. However, it did not look as if Newcastle would take the points, and when Watford made the 0-1 you already knew that Newcastle did not have enough in-house to force the equalizer. Instead, Watford could even easily reach 0-3.
Meanwhile, Newcastle has lost four games in a row and in those four games, Newcastle only scored one goal (from Manchester United). This season, Newcastle managed to win only once in six away games and did not score in three of those games on foreign soil. In the last four away games, Newcastle took only one run, so they will travel to West Bromwich with their knees nodded.
