Newcastle are still defying critics and stand a real chance of making the Champions League spots; they are currently three points behind fourth-place Arsenal. The Geordie fans were disappointed last time out as their side threw away a two-goal lead against Wolves to draw 2-2, but the club still have exceeded expectations this term. Demba Ba and Papiss Cisse will be sure to terrorise their opponents this weekend, as Alan Pardew’s men hope to do the double over their rivals this season. Bwin have the home side as favourites at odds of 2.05.
Sunderland have been revitalised since Martin O’Neill stepped into the managerial hotseat, and they have went from relegation potential to a solid mid-table team. The Black Cats have improved markedly over the last couple of months, but suffered a strange blip last time out, getting beat 4-0 by West Brom. James McClean continues to impress for the Wearside club, whilst Stephane Sessegnon has been linked with a move to Arsenal and Tottenham recently. Bwin have the visitors at odds of 3.60 to win.
This will be a close game, but home advantage may just make the difference. My Premier League football betting tip is a 2-1 win to Newcastle, which Bwin have at odds of 8.50.
