Live on Sky Sports 1: Sun 13.30: Newcastle are 5/2 (BetVictor) to beat Sunderland ‘to nil’ in their Premier League derby clash.
Newcastle have lost the last three Tyne-Wear derby showdowns and are winless in five contests against Sunderland but bookies expect the Magpies to snap that sequence at St James’s Park this weekend, Stan James installing them as favourites at 11/10 to get the better of the Black Cats, who are 29/10 with bet365 to secure all three points in their rivals’ back yard for the third season in a row.
As Gus Poyet’s men are the Premier League’s stalemate specialists, Paddy Power’s 5/2 about it finishing all square is expected to be popular, however, the visitors have won just twice all season and their lack of a goal threat should hand the incentive to their neighbours.
Alan Pardew’s team are 5/2 (BetVictor) to prevail ‘to nil’ and in what looks set to be a scrappy, tight affair, a case can be made for a 1-0 home triumph at 13/2 via bet365.
