Newcastle’s current slide doesn’t appear like it’ll put the team in danger of relegation, as it’s still nine points above the relegation line. Still, any time a team loses three in a row is cause for concern. Only Burnley currently has a longer active losing streak in the Premier League.
The Magpies kept matches against Chelsea and Everton close, but were dominated by Tottenham on Sunday, losing 5-1. Fabian Schär put the team up 1-0 in the 39th minute, but five unanswered goals from Tottenham followed.
Newcastle is in line for its worst Premier League finish since the 2015-16 campaign, when it finished 18th and was relegated to the EFL for one season.
Predicted Newcastle starting XI: Dubravka; Target, Burn, Schär, Manquillo, Joelinton, Shelvey, Willock, Saint-Maximin, Wood, Fraser.
| Position | Wolves roster |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Sa, Ruddy, Stoner |
| Defenders | Hoever, Ait-Nouri, Marcal, Mosquera, Boly, Coady, Jonny, Semedo, Kilman, Gomes, Bueno |
| Midfielders | Neves, Podence, Saiss, Moutinho, Dendoncker, Cundle |
| Forwards | Neto, Jimenez, Trincao, Silva, Chiquinho, Hwang, Campbell |
Wolves is coming off of a 2-1 win over Aston Villa, with Jonny scoring the team’s lone goal, as the difference maker in the match was an own goal from Aston Villa’s Ashley Young.
The team is led in goals this season by Raúl Jiménez, a 30-year-old striker who plays for Mexico’s national team who has scored six goals.
Wolves is right on the verge of qualifying for international competition, as it sits two points back of sixth-place West Ham for the qualification spot for the Europa Conference League.
Predicted Wolves starting XI: Sa; Boly, Coady, Kilman, Castro, Dendoncker, Moutinho, Marçal, Trincão, Podence, Silva.
