Newcastle vs Ipswich Preview

Eddie Howe’s outfit are on a three-match winning streak at home. Newcastle cruised to victories against Brentford 2-1, Man United 4-1 and Crystal Palace 5-0.

Defensive trio Jamaal Lascelles, Sven Botman and Lewis Hall are set to miss out through injury.

Isak is the Premier League’s second-highest goalscorer this season with 21 goals in 30 appearances.

Ipswich will be relegated from the Premier League if they lose or draw at Newcastle on Saturday. The Tractor Boys have won just four of 33 games and conceded 73 goals.

The Suffolk outfit have secured only six points from their previous 14 league matches. Ipswich are also winless in three, including a 2-1 loss against Wolves and a 2-2 draw at Chelsea.

Kieran McKenna’s side lost their 20th league game of the season on Sunday, falling to a 4-0 defeat against Arsenal. Ipswich allowed 2.81 XG and conceded two goals in each half.

Defender Leif Davis is suspended.

Forwards Chiedozie Ogbene, Sam Szmodics, Jaden Philogene, Omari Hutchinson and Nathan Broadhead are injured.

Goalkeeper Arijanet Muric, defender Wes Burns and midfielder Kalvin Phillips are also sidelined here.

Verdict

Newcastle v Ipswich

Newcastle have brushed recent opponents aside at St James’ Park and Isak gets plenty of scoring chances. More Isak goals are anticipated in a likely Toon triumph over Ipswich.
