Eddie Howe’s squad will be chasing a 6th straight win in the Premier League on Wednesday. They’ve been in electric form over the festive period, and it’s continued into 2025.
Newcastle’s xGs of 2.83, 2.34, and 2.43 in their previous three highlights their excellent attacking quality in recent weeks. Overall, they’ve accumulated an xG of 28.74 this season and netted 28 goals.
Alexander Isak’s potential absence could be a concern for those looking to side with the hosts when making a Newcastle vs Wolves prediction. However, it’s hard to see them losing. They conceded an xGA of 25.78 in the Premier League this season and allowed a total of 18.
Vítor Pereira’s arrival sparked an immediate return to form for Wolves. But they’ve recently dipped below that standard after only picking up one point from their last two matches.
The Wolves’ results mean they’ll sit outside of the relegation places on goal difference. Their chances this week could be hindered due to a missing Matheus Cunha. Vitor’s men will hope to be solid defensively in their 3-4-2-1 formation at St. James’ Park. They’ve conceded 15 goals from an xGA of 17.08.
They’ll need to find more in the final third after scoring 15 goals from an xG of 11.11.
Bet hereEven without Isak, Newcastle should have few issues against Wolves at St. James’ Park on Wednesday.
Howe’s team have been lethal in front of the goal during their five-game winning sequence. Their dominant defensive structure also looks set to give them a clear edge over a Wolves side that have struggled in the final third this season.
Meanwhile, the trends support the chances of a home win, as Newcastle have won four of their last six against their opponents.
It could be hard to foresee both teams scoring at St. James’ Park on Wednesday. Wolves have limited quality in the final third, evident by their xG metric of 11.11, scoring 15 times. Meanwhile, a home-ground goal looks like a solid chance since the visitors have never kept a clean sheet in 9 previous visits to Newcastle.
If Isak stays away due to injury, Anthony Gordon could be an interesting player to score. The winger has averaged 2.25 shots per 90 in the Premier League this season and has scored 5 goals from an xG of 7.24.
