Crystal Palace - Newcastle Predictions

Prediction: Draw or Newcastle
Best odds: 1.32

As the Premier League's Regular Season edges closer to its climax, the upcoming clash between Crystal Palace and Newcastle at Selhurst Park is shrouded in speculation. With predictions hanging in the balance, fans are eager to see which team will come out on top in this mid-table tussle.

Jean-Philippe Mateta, Crystal Palace's formidable attacker, is one to watch, boasting a rating of 6.77. With 3 goals to his name and a sharp eye for goal, evidenced by his 10 shots on target, Mateta could be the difference-maker. In the midfield, Jeffrey Schlupp's presence is equally crucial, with a rating of 6.80 and a record of 1 goal and 1 assist. Defensively, Tyrick Kwon Mitchell stands out with a rating of 6.84, contributing not just to the backline but also to the attack with 2 assists.

Newcastle brings its own set of key players to the fray. Sandro Tonali, a midfielder with a rating of 6.83, though he has scored just 1 goal, his contribution can't be measured in goals alone. Meanwhile, Lewis Miley (rating 6.84) has been a creative force in the middle, with 2 assists and 1 goal. Not to be overlooked is Jamaal Lascelles, Newcastle's defensive stalwart, whose rating of 6.86 speaks to his reliability at the back.

Recent Form

Crystal Palace's form has been a mixed bag, with their last five games reading WDLLW. They currently sit 13th in the league with 28 points. Their home record, however, suggests they are more formidable at Selhurst Park, with 4 wins out of 13. Newcastle, on the other hand, has been slightly more consistent, with their last five results LDWDW, placing them 9th in the standings with 37 points. Their away form has been less impressive, with only 3 wins out of 13.

Head-to-Head History

The head-to-head record between these two sides offers an intriguing insight. Their last encounter on October 21, 2023, saw Newcastle triumph with a convincing 4-0 victory at home. However, the two previous meetings ended in stalemates, with a 0-0 draw at Selhurst Park on January 21, 2023, and another goalless draw on September 3, 2022, at Newcastle. This history suggests a tightly contested match could be on the cards.

Prediction

Without a clear favorite, this match promises to be a closely fought contest. Crystal Palace will be looking to capitalize on their home advantage and improve their standing, while Newcastle will be keen to build on their solid position in the top half of the table. The absence of a prediction for a winner from the data reflects the unpredictable nature of this fixture.

However, considering the recent form of both teams and their head-to-head record, a draw seems a plausible outcome. Crystal Palace will likely rely on the likes of Jean-Philippe Mateta and Jeffrey Schlupp to breach Newcastle's defense, while the visitors will hope Sandro Tonali and Lewis Miley can control the midfield and set up opportunities.

In a match where both teams will be desperate to claim all three points, expect a tactical battle with moments of individual brilliance that could tip the scale. Yet, with neither side showing a distinct edge, a sharing of the spoils might be the most likely scenario. The key players mentioned could be pivotal in deciding the outcome, but given the recent history, fans might be bracing themselves for another tense and possibly goal-shy encounter at Selhurst Park.
