Crystal Palace vs Newcastle United - 24/04/2024

4039

In this midweek Premier League clash between Crystal Palace and Newcastle United, both teams are poised for a crucial encounter as they navigate their respective ambitions in the league.

Crystal Palace currently sits comfortably in the low-middle of the table, yet their Premier League status remains unsecured, while Newcastle is pushing for a top-six finish in the remaining rounds.

Crystal Palace enters the match on the back of a two-game winning streak, signaling positive signs under new management.

Their recent triumph over Liverpool at Anfield followed by a dominant 5-2 victory against West Ham showcased their attacking prowess, with Eberechi Eze, Michael Olise, and Jean-Philippe Mateta shining brightly.

However, defensive frailties persist as evidenced by their failure to keep a clean sheet in recent matches, conceding an average of 1.53 goals in their last home games.

Despite this, the return of Michael Olise injects renewed energy into the Eagles' squad, offering hope for further victories as they seek to secure their Premier League status.

Meanwhile, Newcastle continues to defy the odds amidst an injury crisis, steadily climbing up the league table.

Their recent emphatic 4-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur showcased their resilience and attacking potency, with Aleksandar Isak and Anthony Gordon leading the charge.

However, their away form has been less convincing, with just two wins in their last six away games and a tendency to concede goals in the latter stages of matches.

Nevertheless, Newcastle's ability to find the net consistently, especially in the second half, underscores their threat going forward as they aim to extend their unbeaten streak against Crystal Palace.

In head-to-head encounters, Newcastle United boasts an unbeaten record in their last six matches against Crystal Palace across all competitions, adding intrigue to this upcoming fixture.

Crystal Palace will miss Cheick Doucoure, Jefferson Lerma, Jesurun Rak-Sakyi, Marc Guehi, Matheus Franca, Nathan Ferguson, and Sam Johnstone, while Newcastle United will be without Callum Wilson, Jamaal Lascelles, Joe Willock, Joelinton, Kieran Trippier, Lewis Miley, Matt Targett, Miguel Almiron, Nick Pope, and Sven Botman.

Forebet predicts a victory for Newcastle United with both teams finding the net, setting the stage for an enthralling encounter at Selhurst Park.
