Newcastle vs Bournemouth Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 5th September 2026

As the early season favourites, Newcastle will look to justify their title credentials this coming Saturday when they take on Bournemouth for a round 3 match in the Premier League.

With four points to show for the first two matches it has been a decent opening to the new campaign for Newcastle, who aim for three more points this time around.

Newcastle will be satisfied after collecting four points from a possible six in their new Premier League campaign, as they aim for three more points this time around.

We are bound to see an exciting game this coming Saturday as both Newcastle and Bournemouth are looking to add some much-needed points to their respective accounts.

The Magpies only average a modest 1.4 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 14 goals. They also conceded 14 for an average of 1.4 per game. They kept their opponents from scoring one times.

Bournemouth scored 16 goals, conceded 11 and managed two clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

The last time these two teams faced off against each other, Bournemouth came away as 1-2 winners. No doubt they are planning a similar outcome on Saturday.

Newcastle vs Bournemouth Prediction

Newcastle Form

Their last three matches saw Newcastle drawing 2-2 with Liverpool, before taking out West Bromwich by 3-2, and Tottenham by 0-2. Newcastle won three of their previous six matches at St James' Park in the Premier League. They drew one and suffered two defeats, scoring 12 goals to nine against.

Bournemouth Form

Bournemouth have been a tad mediocre in their last three matches where a win has failed to come their way. Against Nottingham Forest, they gained a 1-1 draw, before coming up short against Manchester City, who ran out 2-1 winners. Lately, they finished even in a 1-1 draw with Everton. Bournemouth won half their previous six away matches in the Premier League, as well as seeing two draws and suffering one defeat. They scored seven goals whilst conceding five.

With Newcastle in relatively good shape these days, we aim for the home win, when they take on Bournemouth. The value lies with the former, with form a little too dubious for the visitors.
