Newcastle’s next few games offer a golden opportunity to climb the table
Posted on September 27th, 2018 | No Comments |
The Magpies head into Saturday’s game against Leicester City 18th in the standings, having collected just two points from their opening six matches.
A victory this weekend would be a major boost, although there are reasons to believe that October and early November could be a productive period regardless of what happens against the Foxes.
Read on as we look at Newcastle’s next four opponents after the Leicester game.
Manchester United (A), October 6.
It’s been a disappointing start to the campaign for Jose Mourinho’s side, with many of their top players failing to perform at their best under their self-effacing Portuguese Supremo.
Newcastle lost heavily at Old Trafford last season, but they are certainly capable of snatching at least a point this time around.
Brighton & Hove Albion (H), October 20.
However, Newcastle have lost just one of their last four meetings with the south coast side in all competitions and this Bet365 bonus code 2018 is worth a look if you fancy them to improve that record.
Brighton’s form at the start of this season has been patchy, with the club winning one and drawing two of their opening six games.
Southampton (A), October 27.
The Saints are not the side they were a couple of seasons ago and manager Mark Hughes has yet to convince that he’s the man to improve their fortunes.
If the Magpies are to climb up the table, Southampton are the sort of side they need to be beating.
Watford (H), November 3.
However, the Hornets have won the last five meetings in all competitions and their impressive start to the new season shows what can be achieved when everyone pulls in the same direction.
Despite their recent record against Watford, this is another game that Benitez’s side are capable of winning.
