Before Betting On Newcastle vs Brighton
It has been a strong finish to the 2023-24 season for Newcastle, and they are well within reach of achieving a European finish this term. The Magpies come into the penultimate weekend of the season sitting sixth, while they could move to within a point of Tottenham with a victory this weekend.
Brighton’s struggles throughout the second half of the Premier League season have been well-documented, and that has seen them fall out of touch of a European finish. The Seagulls come into this round of matches sitting in the bottom half of the standings after winning just once in their last five matches.
Newcastle’s home record could be one of the key trends to consider this weekend, as they have netted in all 18 matches at St. James’ Park. They have only scored in all home matches in a single top-flight campaign on one occasion in their history. Meanwhile, their tally of 78 goals in the league this term is their highest since netting 82 times in the 1993-94 season.
Brighton landed a victory in the reverse clash between the sides this season, and they will be looking for a league double over the Magpies for just the second time. The double has only been achieved once in their Premier League history. But, Newcastle have won each of their last two home matches against the Seagulls.
