Newcastle United vs Leicester City Prediction
In their previous meeting earlier this season, Newcastle won 4-0 at home. Newcastle is 4-0-1 in their last 5 meetings against Leicester City. Over is 4-0 in their last 4 meetings, with all games having produced at least 3 goals. Both teams to score – No has hit in all of their last four meetings.
In this Newcastle United vs Leicester City Prediction, Newcastle is coming as huge -195 road favorites. Newcastle is rightfully favored, as they have been the better team this season, but they are just 2-2 in their last 4 road meetings against Leicester, so I don’t trust them as such big favorites. Their previous meeting this season had four total goals, and all of their last four meetings had 3+ goals. Leicester has been terrible defensively, so I see another high-scoring affair in this one. Take the over 2.75 goals.
