Our predictions for Burnley vs Newcastle
Match Prediction: Burnley 1-2 Newcastle
Burnley's recent form has been inconsistent, with three losses and two draws in their last five matches. They will be looking to capitalise on their home advantage and the attacking threat posed by Edwards and Larsen. However, their defensive frailties, as seen in their recent losses, might be a concern against a Newcastle side that has shown they can score, as evidenced by their win against Burnley earlier in the season.
Newcastle, on the other hand, have had a mixed bag of results, with a win, two draws, and two losses in their recent outings. Their ability to score goals, as seen in their matches against Chelsea and Tottenham, could be crucial. However, their away form has been less convincing, which might give Burnley hope. The midfield battle between Cullen and Guimarães could be pivotal in determining the outcome of this match.

Form Guide & Team Overview
Burnley

Their inability to secure a win, particularly at home against teams like Fulham and Crystal Palace, suggests a lack of confidence and momentum going into this match. This inconsistent form could impact their performance against Newcastle, as they struggle to find the right balance between attack and defence.

Lineups & Tactical Setup
Burnley (3-4-3)
Predicted lineup: Dúbravka (GK), Laurent (DF), Ekdal (DF), Humphreys (DF), Walker (MF), Ugochukwu (MF), Cullen (MF), Pires (MF), Edwards (AT), Broja (AT), Larsen (AT)
Burnley are expected to line up in a 3-4-3 formation, with Dúbravka in goal and a back three of Laurent, Ekdal, and Humphreys. This setup should allow them to be solid defensively while providing width through Pires and Walker, enabling Edwards, Broja, and Larsen to exploit spaces in the Newcastle defence.
Newcastle (4-3-3)
Predicted lineup: Ramsdale (GK), Miley (DF), Thiaw (DF), Schär (DF), Hall (DF), Tonali (MF), Guimarães (MF), Ramsey (MF), Murphy (AT), Woltemade (AT), Gordon (AT)
Newcastle are likely to deploy a 4-3-3 formation, with Ramsdale between the posts and a back four of Miley, Thiaw, Schär, and Hall. This formation should provide a solid defensive base while allowing Tonali, Guimarães, and Ramsey to control the midfield, feeding the ball to the attacking trio of Murphy, Woltemade, and Gordon.
Key Battles & Players to Watch
- Larsen vs Miley: Jacob Bruun Larsen's pace and dribbling skills will test Lewis Miley's defensive capabilities.
- Walker vs Guimarães: Kyle Walker's energy and work rate will be crucial in containing Bruno Guimarães' influence in midfield.
- Edwards (Burnley): Marcus Edwards' creativity and goal-scoring threat will be vital for Burnley's chances.
- Ramsey (Newcastle): Jacob Ramsey's ability to control the tempo and link defence to attack will be key for Newcastle.
