It's still early in the Premier League season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Newcastle United - Burnley preview!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Newcastle United form and stats
The home fans saw their team lose the first Premier League game of the season here at St. James' Park. Last season these fans witnessed 6 wins, 8 draws and 5 losses from Newcastle United's 19 home games.
Newcastle United manager S. Bruce and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Newport County (after extra-time, 4-5 on penalties) in the Carabao Cup. 1-1 away at Tottenham Hotspur before that.
This is expected to be a close game, with Newcastle United perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Newcastle United as a small favourite), we find 13 games. Newcastle has won five of these, drawn five and lost three.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Newcastle United at home in the league. 0 on target and 3 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
Burnley form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the Premier League ended in defeat. Last season Burnley had these away match statistics: Played 19; won 7, drew 5 and lost 7.
Home advantage was not enough for Burnley in their previous game, as they lost their Carabao Cup-match, hosting Manchester City, 0-3. The game before that, in the Premier League, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against Southampton.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eight similar matches played by Burnley in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Burnley, two draws and three defeats.
2 goals so far away for Burnley, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 4. All from 1 league match away.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last eight meetings between these two teams are: two wins for Newcastle, four draws and two wins for Burnley. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: six games.Top Goalscorers
