Crystal Palace take on Newcastle at Selhurst Park on Monday 26 October, with kick-off at 1:00am AEDT. Here’s our Crystal Palace vs Newcastle prediction and the best odds at Neds before you bet.
Crystal Palace vs Newcastle match prediction
Palace were flattened 5-0 by Brighton last time out, while Newcastle have now lost three of their past four league matches.
Neither defence inspires a great deal of confidence here, which points towards a scrappy draw rather than a classic.
Score Prediction: Crystal Palace 1-1 Newcastle United
Potential Goal Scorer: Yoane Wissa
- Correct score 1-1 @ $7.75: Palace are 14th on seven points and Newcastle 11th on eight. Newcastle have scored in four of their last five games, and Palace have scored nine goals in theirs.
- Score draw @ $4.00: Both teams scored in three of Newcastle’s last five games. The last five meetings are split two wins each and a 1-1 draw at Selhurst Park.
- Under 3.5 goals @ $1.48: Newcastle have scored five goals in their last five games, and Palace have kept two clean sheets in theirs. A 1-1 leaves room under this line.

- Both teams scored in 2 of Crystal Palace’s last 5 games and 3 of Newcastle’s.
- Over 2.5 goals landed in 4 of Crystal Palace’s last 5 and 3 of Newcastle’s.
- Crystal Palace kept 2 clean sheets in their last 5. Newcastle kept 1.
- Crystal Palace sit 14th on 7 points (2 wins, 1 draw, 4 losses). Newcastle sit 11th on 8 points (2 wins, 2 draws, 3 losses).
Newcastle have conceded 10 goals in their last five, so a Palace goal is likely. Newcastle have also scored in four of those five, which is why we back a goal each and both teams to score.
Crystal Palace: Palace are without Chadi Riad (knee), Quinten Timber (hamstring) and Takehiro Tomiyasu. Goalkeeper Dean Henderson is a doubt. Ben Chilwell, Jean-Philippe Mateta and Axel Disasi are available. Disasi’s return from suspension helps a defence that leaked five at Brighton.
Newcastle: Newcastle are without Tino Livramento (knee) and Ewen Jaouen. Anthony Elanga, Jacob Ramsey and Matias Fernandez-Pardo are doubts. Joelinton, Amar Dedic, Dan Burn and William Osula are back. Elanga’s doubt removes one of Newcastle’s two-goal scorers, which supports a low total.
- Yoane Wissa anytime goalscorer @ $3.00: Wissa is fit, and Newcastle have scored in four of their last five games.
- Jorgen Strand Larsen anytime goalscorer @ $2.80: Strand Larsen has a league goal and an assist for Palace, and we have Palace scoring once.
Anthony Elanga is Newcastle’s joint top league scorer with two goals, but he is a doubt after a thigh injury, so we have left him out.
