What will decide it

The three things we think will settle this match, and which side each one helps.

  • Home advantage

    Newcastle are at home and already the stronger side on our ratings. Playing at St James' Park adds roughly a quarter of a goal to their expected output.

    Helps Newcastle

  • Goals outlook

    Both sides create chances. We expect 2.9 goals, with over 2.5 at 56%, so an open game is more likely than a cagey one.

    Helps Goals

  • Quality gap

    Newcastle are well ahead on our ratings, with the draw at just 20%. An early goal for them would be hard for Brentford to overturn.
