Brighton v Newcastle betting tips: Seagulls bid to keep fine record

The Magpies, who are 19/4 to win, have never had a longer winless start to a league season – they last went more than 10 league games without a win between December 2007 and March 2008 (13 games).

Only Norwich have conceded more goals (25) than the Magpies (23).

They are also one of only two teams still looking to keep a clean sheet in the competition this season, along with Watford.

It is 8/5 Brighton win to nil while it is 9/2 the visitors manage to keep a clean sheet.

The draw is on offer at odds of 14/5 in the Brighton v Newcastle betting tips.

Brighton v Newcastle head-to-head

Brighton have never lost in eight previous Premier League meetings with Newcastle (W4 D4), with the Seagulls conceding just one goal in those eight games.

Potter’s men won both Premier League meetings against Newcastle 3-0 last season – the previous six games between the sides in the competition had produced just four goals combined!

It is 5/6 that fewer than three total goals will be scored this time in the Brighton v Newcastle betting tips.

Indeed, the Seagulls have lost just two of the last 16 meetings with the Magpies in all competitions (W8 D6).

Brighton v Newcastle key battles

Newcastle have only scored with one of their 96 shots in the Premier League against Brighton.

That is a remarkable stat and one that will need to be improved upon if the Magpies have any chance of victory.

Callum Wilson is their likeliest hope.

He is averaging a goal or an assists every 50 minutes at the Amex Stadium in the Premier League (two goals, two assists), scoring in both starts there when playing for Bournemouth.

He is 2/1 to score at any time.
