Newcastle likely to continue stellar run in FA Cup against underdogs Bromley
Newcastle United vs Bromley FC - 12/01/2025
996
Newcastle have been in fantastic form lately and that is not likely to change when they welcome lower league side Bromley in the FA Cup.
While it’s likely that manager Eddie Howe won’t send out the strongest squad he has, with the likes of Alexander Isak likely not playing, Newcastle is just playing sensational football right now.
It’s highly unlikely that they will struggle too much against a Bromley side which is not on their level. Maybe the visiting team put forward an inspiring performance, but overall this is shaping up to be a rather comfortable win for the home team, which is ideal.
If they draw, then they add another match to their schedule, which isn’t good with the schedule being as packed as it is. To find out what likely happens in this matchup, keep reading our Newcastle vs Bromley preview.
Newcastle vs Bromley preview
Newcastle team form
Newcastle, as we mentioned above, have been in fantastic form. They have now won seven matches in a row, posting a 20-2 goal difference during that timespan. That’s all sorts of majestic football and it won’t end against Bromley.
Sure, they will rest a good amount of their starters, but expect the reserves to pick up right where the first team left off because playing so well is contagious.
The fans will also demand the streak to keep going and the FA Cup certainly has a good amount of prestige, so expect them to likely keep things going.
Bromley team form
Bromley haven’t played that poorly lately with a couple of wins here and there. In fact, they won three of the last six they played. However, there remains the fact that they are playing in the fourth English League.
That in itself puts them at a huge disadvantage against Newcastle, especially playing on their field. They’re likely going to come there and enjoy the chance to play in such a big stadium but are very unlikely to leave with any kind of positive result.
It’s going to be the first time they played against Newcastle, which is always a nice thing, but it likely won’t go down in history as a particularly impressive showing.
Newcastle vs Bromley prediction
Newcastle are huge favourites in this one not only because they are playing really well lately but also because they are the much stronger team. Even though it’s a Cup, it’s the FA Cup, so the bigger and more prestigious of the two.
They’re also at home, and fans won’t excuse them from performing at a high level here. They will want to see a win, and a good win, and expect manager Howe to oblige with a competitive team even though Isak most likely won’t play.
Everything points to an easy win for Newcastle, which our algorithm also agrees with, putting the predicted score at 4-1. There is simply too much of a talent gulf between them.
