Newcastle United - Everton betting tips and odds

Newcastle United are firm favourites in this matchup, and backing them may offer surprising betting value. It’s a very safe bet, though we suppose an upset is not outside the realm of possibility. We wouldn’t count on Everton winning, though.

The Toffees are massive underdogs and will be extremely lucky to avoid complete annihilation at the hands of The Magpies.

The Magpies showed some character in their previous Premier League outing. It was a tough trip to take but they held well. Matter of fact, Newcastle kept it level at the break and after the full 90 minutes for a Manchester United draw.

Everton were facing overwhelming odds in their previous Premier League away game, and not even the most ardent of fans expected a victory. They managed to keep a tie score for a surprisingly long time but failed to prevent the 2:0 loss that was ultimately recorded.

A quick look at the recent trends reveals a solid record for The Magpies, who have managed to score 5 times in their previous 3 matches. This means that markets like BTTS or Over 5 Goals are worth your attention.

With the home-field advantage on their side, The Magpies should be able to contribute 3 points towards the 1 they need to reach a better table position.

The opening stages of the season brought Everton to the lower end of the table. Their supporters can’t be too happy seeing them placed at number 14th – especially not with this challenging matchup coming up. They’ll have to use the rest of the season wisely if they want to see any success in this campaign.

The latest example of a clash between these two sides we have is from last season when Newcastle managed to walk away with a solid victory and a 2+ goal difference. If the 1.68 betting odds for a home win are to be believed, most bookies are expecting them to repeat that success.

The hosts may be favourites to win the match, but their lineup is in a somewhat weakened state. Emil Krafth, Allan Saint-Maximin, Matt Ritchie are all sidelined due to injury, which makes The Magpies’s position as favourites a bit shakier than it might seem.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.98. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
