Crystal Palace vs Newcastle preview: Palace can provide a sting against Magpies
Newcastle are coming off a two-game losing streak after a 4-1 Premier League loss at Coventry and a 1-0 home defeat to Aston Villa, but Palace's form isn't much better and this weekend's Crystal Palace vs Newcastle prediction should be closely matched and end-to-end. Matthias Jaissle's Magpies have won two and lost three of their last five matches in all competitions while The Eagles have picked up just one win, one draw and three defeats from their last 5.
Newcastle have won one and lost two of their three away trips in Premier League 2026/2027, conceding eight goals on the road already. Palace have a similar record at Selhurst Park, winning one and losing two of three.
Odds-on Magpies aren't worth backing
Betting angle
With both sides struggling for wins, Newcastle's odds-on quote of 2.4 doesn't look worth backing. For Crystal Palace vs Newcastle betting tips, the draw at 3.55 is a big runner.
Tactical preview
This game will be a tactical matchup between two clubs with different, but equally identifiable, identities and a similar tempo. Pierre Sage has brought a very structured back-three system to Crystal Palace and added the high-energy pressing, but there is also a real buzz to his Eagles, who overrun opponents with their wing-back overloads and Daichi Kamada's channel runs.
Jaissle's Newcastle have a similarly high-energy style of play, with his pressing intensity and preference for fast, vertical transitions giving his Magpies a Red Bull-like bite. Both teams will be desperate to win this game and that should lead to a game with plenty of pressing, counter-pressing and transitions from both sides.
Both players can score in a high-scoring game
Both team to score at 1.53 looks live for this encounter and the over 2.5 goals at 1.65 also appeals as both clubs are conceding plenty of goals and may need to score more than they have been in recent weeks to secure the 3 points.
- Crystal Palace vs Newcastle prediction also points to goals, as Kamada has three assists in five Premier League 2026/2027 matches and looks to have been the biggest spark in the Palace forward line, but he has also scored two of The Eagles' last five goals.
- Tyrick Mitchell has been another outlet with two goals in five league games for Sage's side.
- Anthony Elanga has been Newcastle's top scorer with two in three this season, but Joseph Willock has two goals in Newcastle's last five.
