2623
One of the four Premier League fixtures to be played on Tuesday the 2nd of February takes place at Saint James's park as Newcastle United entertain Crystal Palace. The hosts begin the week in 15th place on 22 points while the visitors are in 13th place on 26 points.
Newcastle United come into the match on the back of an excellent 2-0 victory at Everton on the weekend. There was a great deal to enjoy about the Newcastle performance and they were pressing the opposition and playing aggressively, which is something we have not seen from them in the Premier League this season.
That result ended a run of 6 successive defeats in all competitions, including 5 losses in the Premier League. It was the first clean sheet Newcastle United have kept in 8 Premier League games but The Magpies have failed to win any of their 4 most recent home fixtures in the Premier League.
There have been draws with Fulham and Liverpool plus defeat against Leicester City and Leeds United.
Trends show Newcastle United have kept just a single clean sheet in their last 14 home Premier League games. This is a statistic they will be hoping to improve by keeping out the opposition in this match.
Crystal Palace make the trip north having defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-0 at home in the Premier League on the weekend. It was a good result for The Eagles in a tight game and they managed to prevent the opposition from scoring an equaliser having taken the lead on the hour mark.
That was a massive result for Crystal Palace having failed to win any of their previous 4 games in all competitions. Three of those matches were in the Premier League and there were defeats at the hands of Manchester City away and West Ham United at home plus a draw with Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
Away form in the Premier League shows Crystal Palace have picked up just a single victory from their 7 most recent away trips in the competition. They have failed to win any of their last 4 on the road, losing at Aston Villa and Manchester City plus drawing with West Ham United and Arsenal.
Trends show Crystal Palace have failed to score in their last 4 away matches in all competitions.
Team news and Newcastle United will be tempted to go with the same starting XI that worked against Everton. However, Jamaal Lascelles could miss out having been forced off the pitch in that game but we could see a return to the team for Allan Saint-Maximin.
Crystal Palace have several players unavailable due to injury including James Tomkins, Mamadou Sakho, Jeffrey Schlupp, Wayne Hennessey, Connor Wickham, and Nathan Ferguson. James McArthur is a doubt.
This match looks the perfect opportunity for Newcastle United to make it back to back wins in the Premier League. They were much improved in the victory at Everton on the weekend and could win another 3 points plus keep a clean sheet.
