Newcastle vs Norwich City Prediction and Betting Tips | 1st Decemeber, 2021

Newcastle host Norwich City at St. James' Park in the Premier League on Tuesday in a bottom-of-the-table clash.

Newcastle are rock-bottom in the league, having not won a single game yet this season. Eddie Howe's side are three points behind their opponents and six points away from safety. This will be a crucial game if they want to have any chance of avoiding relegation this season.

Despite their terrible start to the campaign, Norwich City have turned things around under Dean Smith and are currently three games unbeaten in the league. They should be confident of picking up all three points against a poor Newcastle side.

Both sides need a win in order to kickstart their campaigns and that should make for an interesting matchup.
