Current form
Newcastle have failed to win a single game in their last three rounds – two draws and a defeat. Undoubtedly, the friendly outcome with Manchester City (1:1) is definitely worth adding to the Magpies’ assets.

Nevertheless, Eddie Howe’s men are in seventh place in the league table with 12 points and are two points behind the top 4.
It is impossible not to note that many of Newcastle successes are connected with their performances at home, where they managed to collect seven points out of a maximum of nine in three matches played. Goalkeeper Nick Pope makes a great contribution to the success. It was his five goals that helped them draw with Manchester City.
