Double Chance

Newcastle or Draw

74%

Confidence

Newcastle enter this fixture unbeaten in the Premier League, having averaged two goals scored per match across their fixtures. Although they have shared the points in both home league matches against Liverpool and Bournemouth with 2-2 scorelines, their attacking consistency gives them a solid foundation at home. Hull City have been resilient, claiming eight points from four games, but their defensive depth faces a test with several squad absences. Backing Newcastle to either win or draw covers the most probable match states while acknowledging Hull's solid start.
