Newcastle United VS Tottenham Hotspur
Newcastle and Tottenham lock horns in this English Premier League round 3 battle at St. James' Park Sunday evening Beijing time. This is the best league in the world as a whole – by a wide margin. Football fans and us serious, profit-hungry bettors can expect a match better than average level by this league's standards here.. Most importantly, we have a very lucrative betting opportunity here - once again! We have won 14 of the last 16 matches betting on this league. Newcastle are known as a very strong home team in front of their extremely loud fans. Last season they lost only three of the 19 games at St. James' Park. I want to highlight that in the latter part of the season they suffered from a big number of key players being injured, which cost them a large number of points. In the autumn they had to play (too) many games with a rather narrow squad. Indeed, they played in the UEFA Champions League group stage - for example crushing PSG - with stars like Kylian Mbappe - 4-1 at after a terrific performance home! They did not qualify for the Playoffs from the tricky group though, but still had a chance to do so in the last round of group stage.. Newcastle finished in 7th place last season, Tottenham, on the other hand, ended up in 5th place. Newcastle definitely have a chance to take a top-6 place this season - even a place in the top-4 would not be a massive surprise! Newcastle's number of expected points (xPTS) last season was 66.76 but actually took "only" 60 points.. Tottenham grabbed 66 points and their xPTS was only 56.77! Rather interestingly, Newcastle's score difference was +23, Tottenham's goal difference was much worse - +13.. The hosts will unfortunately be without Botman, Dubravka, Lascelles, Miley, Schar and Wilson. Willock is questionable. As for Tottenham, Richarlison and Solanke are out. With the expected lineups, Tottenham are marginally the stronger team but with the huge home advantage Newcastle deserve to be the favourites. The bookmakers have made yet another mistake with their odds here - most of the biggest bookies see Tottenham as slim favourites, so we will take the Newcastle +0.5 goals handicap option! However, I expect smart money to pile up on the hosts, resulting in odds dropping before the kickoff.
I want to emphasize that Newcastle have not lost any of their last 11 games at St. James' Park, winning the majority of the 11 matches. They have now won four times - and taken one draw - in their last five matches. In their most recent game, they beat Nottingham 2-1 on the road after penalties on the road in an EFL Cup clash. Newcastle recorded many more goal attempts, shots on goal, corner kicks, attacks and dangerous attacks. Before this it was a 1-1 draw against Bournemouth away from home. Newcastle were slightly the better team on the pitch as a whole. Bournemouth played clearly above their normal level in this match. In round 1 Newcastle defeated Southampton 1-0 at St. James' Park despite Schar being sent off in the 28th minute when the score was still 0-0. What a fine, well-organized effort it was with 10 players! Newcastle showed great fighting spirit and tactical maturity after the red card, despite being forced to defend quite a lot..
Tottenham have won one of their last four games. In their last game they beat Everton 4-0 at home. I need to highlight that Everton were very poor in this game! Today this out-of-form team lost 2-3 at home to Bournemouth despite leading 2-0 in the 86th minute. I will not give Tottenham beating Everton that much emphasis. Tottenham, of course, deserved to win but the final score flatters them. The hosts had 13 goal attempts, Everton managed 10. The expected goals (xG) number were 2.45-0.76. In round 1 Tottenham played a 1-1 draw with Leicester away from home. Tottenham were priced around 1.70 to win by the bookies. They were very strong and active in the 1st half, taking 1-0 lead. However, they seriously declined in the 2nd half and veteran striker J. Vardy levelled the score. Indeed, Tottenham area rather erratic team.. On a good day they can defeat any opponent but also quite often perform incredibly poorly - at least for 30-45 minutes per game against lowly opponents.. Tottenham generated 1.21 in xG – Leicester - a newly-promoted team with a limited squad for this level - managed 1.16.
纽卡斯尔联队VS托特纳姆热刺
北京时间周日晚,英超联赛第三轮,纽卡斯尔和热刺将在圣詹姆斯公园球场展开激战。总的来说,这是世界上最好的联赛,而且差距很大。足球迷和我们这些认真的、追求利润的投注者可以期待一场高于联赛平均水平的比赛。最重要的是,我们有一个非常有利可图的赌博机会-再一次!在过去16场赌这个联赛的比赛中,我们赢了14场。纽卡斯尔在他们无比喧闹的球迷面前被认为是一支非常强大的主队。上赛季他们在圣詹姆斯公园球场的19场比赛中只输了3场。我想强调的是,在赛季后半段,他们遭受了大量主力球员受伤的困扰,这让他们损失了很多分。在秋天,他们不得不用一个相当狭窄的阵容打(太多)比赛。事实上,他们在欧冠小组赛中——比如在主场表现出色的姆巴佩这样的球星的带领下,以4比1击败了巴黎圣日耳曼!虽然他们没有从这个棘手的小组进入季后赛,但他们仍然有机会在最后一轮小组赛中进入季后赛。纽卡斯尔上赛季排名第七,而托特纳姆则排名第五。纽卡斯尔本赛季绝对有机会进入前6,即使进入前4也不会是一个巨大的惊喜!纽卡斯尔上赛季的预期得分(xPTS)是66.76,但实际上只拿到了60分。热刺拿到66分,但他们的得分只有56.77!有趣的是,纽卡斯尔的净胜球是+23,热刺的净胜球更差——+13。不幸的是,东道主将没有博特曼、杜布拉夫卡、拉塞尔斯、麦莉、沙尔和威尔逊。威洛克是有问题的。至于热刺,理查森和索兰克都将缺席。根据预期的阵容,托特纳姆热刺的实力略强,但凭借巨大的主场优势,纽卡斯尔理应成为夺冠热门。博彩公司在赔率上又犯了一个错误——大多数最大的博彩公司都认为热刺的赔率很低,所以我们选择纽卡斯尔+0.5个进球的赔率。然而,我预计大量资金会涌向东道主,导致开球前赔率下降。
我想强调的是,纽卡斯尔在圣詹姆斯公园球场的11场比赛中没有输过一场,赢得了11场比赛中的大部分。在最近的5场比赛中,他们取得了4场胜利,1场平局。在最近的一场联赛杯比赛中,他们在客场点球后以2-1击败诺丁汉。纽卡斯尔记录了更多的进球尝试、射门、角球、进攻和危险进攻。在此之前是客场1-1战平伯恩茅斯。纽卡斯尔在球场上整体表现稍好一些。伯恩茅斯在这场比赛中的表现明显超出了他们的正常水平。在第1轮比赛中,纽卡斯尔在圣詹姆斯公园球场1-0击败南安普顿,尽管沙尔在第28分钟被罚下,当时比分还是0-0。这是一场由10名球员组织起来的精彩比赛!纽卡斯尔在红牌之后表现出了强大的斗志和战术上的成熟,尽管他们被迫防守了很多次。
热刺在最近四场比赛中赢了一场。在上一场比赛中,他们在主场以4比0击败埃弗顿。我需要强调的是埃弗顿在这场比赛中表现很差!今天,这支状态不佳的球队在主场以2-3输给了伯恩茅斯,尽管他们在第86分钟就以2-0领先。我不会给热刺击败埃弗顿太多的强调。热刺当然应该获胜,但最后的比分让他们感到高兴。东道主有13次射门,埃弗顿有10次。预期目标(xG)数为2.45-0.76。在第一轮比赛中,热刺在客场1-1战平莱斯特城。博彩公司将托特纳姆热刺队的胜率定在1.70左右。他们在上半场非常强大和活跃,以1-0领先。然而,他们在下半场严重下滑,老将J.瓦尔迪扳平了比分。的确,热刺这支区域相当不稳定的球队。在好的情况下,他们可以击败任何对手,但也经常表现得非常糟糕——至少每场比赛30-45分钟。热刺在上个赛季的进球数为1.21,而莱斯特城——一支新晋球队,在这个级别的阵容有限——的进球数为1.16。
