Eddie Howe’s Newcastle will be chasing a response when they return to action on Saturday. The Magpies have stuttered in the Premier League, failing to win each of their last three.
It could be worth noting before making a Newcastle vs Brighton prediction that the Magpies have scored just twice over the last three games. Goals have been in short supply for Howe’s side this term, and the root of their issue could be the form of Alexander Isak.
The Sweden international has registered an average of just 2.43 shots per 90 in the competition this term. Meanwhile, the Magpies have an xG of just 5.98 from open play.
Goals are not something Brighton are short of, with each of their last three matches in the competition seeing over 3.5 being scored. Brighton ended a winless run before the international break, stunning Tottenham to come from 2-0 down to land a 3-2 win.
Unlike Newcastle, the Seagulls have a striker who is arguably in the best-scoring form of his career. Danny Welbeck has netted four in seven this season and is operating at an xG of 3.71. Overall, the visitors have a dominant xG when making a Newcastle vs Brighton prediction of 10.83.
But, the Seagulls have also given up clear chances, conceding an average of two goals per game across their last three.
Bet hereAn interesting clash between defence and attack is likely this weekend. However, we like the prospect of the offence coming out on top when making a Newcastle vs Brighton prediction.
The Seagulls have won five of their last 14 Premier League meetings against the Magpies, with the hosts recording just two wins over the same period. Brighton have recorded away wins against Newcastle in two of their last six.
Brazilian striker Joao Pedro should be fit enough to return on Saturday. Pedro has an xG of 0.96 in the Premier League this term, and has scored twice in four appearances. His threat in the air could be important against a Newcastle side that concede a lot of chances from setpieces.
