SSN BET - Match of the Day: Wolverhampton - Newcastle United / 11.02.2019
Hello! So, tomorrow the first matches of the 1/8 Champions League final are waiting for us. In the meantime, that we analyze the final match of the 26th round of the Premier League.
WOLVERHAMPTON
Wolverhampton holds this season very powerfully - after 25 rounds, the team of Nunu Espiritu Santo is on the seventh line in the table. From Arsenal, the fifth "wolves" separates 12 points, but if today they can beat Newcastle, this handicap will be reduced by three points. Not so long ago, the "wolves" came out in the 1/8 of the FA Cup, beating Shrewsbury Town, to cling to the Europa League, they have the opportunity through this tournament. In the Premier League, Wolverhampton now has a series of three victories - the closest rivals, Leicester, West Ham and Everton have fallen alternately, so the “wolves” will be clearly fighting today. Espiritu Santo has no problems with the composition - all players are healthy and ready to play.
NEWCASTLE UNITED
The second season in a row, after reaching the Premier League Newcastle can not find himself. The first part of the championship "magpies" failed and now all the forces trying to rehabilitate. At the moment they have 24 points, which is as much as Southampton, who is in the relegation zone, but the Rafa Benitez team still has today's match. Not so long ago, Newcastle gave a series of two victories - alternately, the “magpies” beat Cardiff and Manchester City, but in the last round Tottenham broke off this series. On the whole, Benitez’s team looked at Wembley very solidly, but at the end of the meeting goalkeeper Martin Dubravka failed. In January, Newcastle made the most expensive purchase in its history - Miguel Almiron bought 21 million pounds from Atlanta United for 21 million pounds, but the Paraguayan has not yet gained form, so the field will not appear from the first minutes. Neither will Jonjo Shelvey, Rob Elliot and Karl Darlow play.
STATISTICS AND PERSONAL MEETINGS
- Wolverhampton has not scored more than one goal in any of the last four home games.
- Newcastle has not scored more than one goal in any of the last six away matches.
- In the last two matches, Wolverhamton missed just one goal.
So let's summarize. Statistics tell us that the teams will not score many balls today and the bookmakers also think so that we will not see a high odds on the total less than 2.5. But, given the form in which Vulvz is now, for some reason, it seems to me that it’s not limited to two goals here. Of course, I will watch this match live before making a bet, but based on the performance statistics of both teams, I will assume that at least both teams can score.
Wolves - Newcastle Total Over 2.5 with 2.26 for 3% of bank
