Newcastle and Nottingham Forest will open the Boxing Day schedule on Tuesday in the early afternoon fixture at St. James’ Park.

The Magpies have eight wins in nine games there in this term of the Premier League and they are big favorites to maintain such a tremendous record against bottom-half strugglers.

Newcastle ended their run of defeats with a 3-0 victory over ten-man Fulham ten days ago. However, they did return to negative ways last Tuesday, losing to Chelsea on penalties in the Carabao Cup quarterfinal.

Head coach Eddie Howe still has big problems with injuries in his ranks as Fabian Schar recently joined the list of absentees after the mentioned game against Fulham. On a positive note, Sven Botman returned to the squad after his long-term injury.

Nottingham Forest made a managerial change after a horrendous streak of five defeats and a draw in the last six league outings.

They parted ways with Steve Cooper and appointed former Wolves and Spurs boss Nuno Epirito Santo as the new head coach.

Santo made his debut on the bench three days ago in the home clash against Bournemouth. We know him as a defensive-minded manager and it will be very interesting to see whether he will be able to fix the obvious holes in Nottingham Forest’s back line any time soon.

Latest Meetings

Newcastle earned the double win over Nottingham Forest in the previous term of the Premier League.
The Magpies have 20 wins, 8 draws, and 9 defeats in the last 37 home affairs against the Reds.
Six of the previous seven head-to-head matches between these sides saw the Over 2.5 goals FT& Both Teams to Score pick coming in.

The Verdict

Nottingham Forest have been dreadful defensively of late, conceding three or more goals in three of the last four away outings in the league.

The main pick is Newcastle to win & Over 2.5 goals FT at the 2.20 odds. We’ll also back the hosts to win by two or more goals difference at the 2.15 odds.
