Wolves – Newcastle, Premier League Prediction

It is extremely important to begin with the fact that in case of win Wolverhampton will cross the 40-point limit, which is believed to be virtually 100% survival for certain team. Not that anyone ever thought there was a chance that the wolves would go to Championship again this season, but still.. Not only that, but overall Wolves seems to be the most prepared and the most permanent team of “the rest”(the teams outside the top 6). Wolves have 3 consecutive wins in the Premier League and are in super form.

Newcastle are seriously involved in the battle for survival. Cardiff defeated Southampton, which brought the saints into the relegation zone with even points so they could not get in there even if they lose today, but each point for Rafa Benitez’s team is invaluable. You have to admit they have been playing well lately, however. Yes, Newcastle has had 3 losses in the last 5 games, but beat City, and their three losses were against Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham.

Wolves and Newcastle are teams whose matches have many cards in most cases. This is more true for wolves. In 12 of their 13 home games there have been at least 3 cards and in most of them the cards were a lot more so you could try even higher rates. When playing against teams outside the top six, Newcastle is prone to a more open and risky game, so there is also a chance to look for cards, and this game will be Monday night, so there is big expectations from Magpies. Prediction – Over 2.5 cards at 1.60

• Scott has given at least 3 cards in 3 of his four official games this season
• In 9 of the last 10 matches between Wolves and Newcastle there were at least 3 cards
