Match Prediction: Newcastle United 2-0 Wolverhampton Wanderers

Newcastle's recent form has been a bit of a rollercoaster, but they've shown they can hold their own against tough opponents. With two draws and a narrow loss, they'll be looking to turn those performances into a win. Wolves, on the other hand, have been struggling, losing their last three league matches. They'll need to tighten up at the back if they want to get anything from this game, but Newcastle's attack might just be too much for them.

Newcastle have been solid defensively in their recent outings, managing two clean sheets in their last three games. However, their attack has been lacking, failing to score in their last two away matches. If they can find their shooting boots, they should have enough to beat a struggling Wolves side. The return of key players could be the boost they need to secure a much-needed win.

Recent Premier League Results:

• Draw: 0-0 vs Leeds United (A)

• Loss: 2-3 vs Liverpool (H)

• Draw: 0-0 vs Aston Villa (A)

Wolves are in a bit of a rut, losing their first three Premier League games and conceding eight goals in the process. Their defence has been all over the place, and they'll need to sort it out quickly if they want to avoid another defeat. The attack hasn't been much better, with only two goals in their last three games. It's going to be a tough ask for them to get anything from this match against a Newcastle side that's been hard to break down.

Recent Premier League Results:

• Loss: 2-3 vs Everton (H)

• Loss: 0-1 vs AFC Bournemouth (A)

• Loss: 0-4 vs Manchester City (H)

Newcastle have had the upper hand in recent meetings, winning four of the last five encounters and drawing one. They've scored 12 goals to Wolves' four in those matches, suggesting they have the edge going into this game.

• Jorgen Strand Larsen (Achilles) - Doubt

• Ki-Jana Hoever (Knee) - Doubt

• Pope, Trippier, Botman, Burn, Schär, Livramento, Tonali, Guimarães, Barnes, Elanga, Wissa

With Botman back in the lineup, Newcastle's defence should be solid. The midfield pairing of Tonali and Guimarães will need to control the game and provide service to the forwards.

• Sá, S Bueno, Agbadou, T Gomes, Tchatchoua, André, J Gomes, H Bueno, Arias, Hwang, Munetsi

Wolves will rely on Bueno to stifle much of Newcastle’s creativity. Gomes and André will need to step up in midfield to try to turn the tide.

• Kieran Trippier vs Hugo Bueno: Trippier's experience and quality could cause problems for the young Wolves player.

• Bruno Guimarães vs João Gomes: Guimarães' creativity will be key for Newcastle, while Gomes will need to disrupt the midfield.

• Anthony Elanga (Newcastle United): His pace and directness could be a real threat to Wolves' defence.

• Hee-chan Hwang (Wolverhampton Wanderers): If Wolves are to get anything from this game, Hwang's goal-scoring ability will be crucial.
