Newcastle vs Wolverhampton Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 13th September 2025

Newcastle hope to live up to their early billing as the Premier League title favourites on Saturday when they welcome Wolverhampton over to the St James' Park for a round 4 match.

Wolves are rock bottom having failed to claim a single point from three matches during this campaign. Following their three encounters Newcastle collected two which hands them number 17 in the Premier League standings.

Wolverhampton have not gained a single point yet from the first three rounds of the current Premier League season. Newcastle obtained two from their opening three games, earning them a place as number 17 in the table.

Newcastle took down Wolverhampton in their most recent meeting, and bookmakers deem another win for the home side a likely scenario on Saturday.

Newcastle 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 ten for an average of one per game. They kept their opponents from scoring five times.

Wolverhampton managed a bearable 13 goals from their past ten games, creating an average of 1.3 goals per game. They conceded 18 goals in total, and while claiming two clean sheets, they conceded 1.8 goals an average per game.

Newcastle won the last two meetings against Wolverhampton, as they followed up a 2-1 win by beating their upcoming opponent by a 3-0 score.

Newcastle vs Wolverhampton Prediction

Newcastle Form

Newcastle have been too mediocre in their last three matches, where a win has failed to come their way. Against Aston Villa, they recorded a 0-0 draw, before coming up short against Liverpool, who ran out 2-3 winners. Lately, they recorded another draw in a 0-0 match with Leeds. It has been a bit hit-and-miss for Newcastle but at least mostly hit, as they put four wins on the board in their previous six Premier League matches. They didn't draw any matches, but lost twice, scoring 16 goals while conceding five.

Wolverhampton Form

It is all or nothing with Wolverhampton, who only triumphed once in their previous three outings. They were defeated 1-0 against Bournemouth, before beating West Ham 3-2. Unable to build on that, they lost 2-3 against Everton. Wolverhampton won half their previous six away matches in the Premier League, as well as seeing zero draws and suffering three defeats. They scored seven goals whilst conceding eight.

Newcastle should be too strong against Wolverhampton to drop any points, and combining this with over 2.5 goals, ups the price on the expected home win at St James' Park.
