Coventry are tipped to avoid defeat in their Premier League match against a Newcastle side struggling away from home. Both teams are expected to score, and in-form winger Harvey Barnes is backed to be involved in a goal. Coventry recently ended a string of defeats with a win over Nottingham Forest, while Newcastle have conceded the most shots in the league and only won five of their last 21 away matches. The main conclusion is Coventry have a solid chance to secure at least a point, with both sides likely to find the net.

Coventry vs Newcastle Premier League Tips & Prediction


Coventry are tipped to avoid defeat at home to a Newcastle side that usually struggle on the road, with both teams to score and Harvey Barnes to register a goal involvement the other plays for Monday night's Premier League showdown.

Both teams are aiming for back-to-back Premier League wins after Coventry upset Nottingham Forest on the road and Newcastle held on at home to Hull before the three-week international break.

Coventry had struggled in their return to the top flight, but got a much-needed boost with that win over Forest, which lifted them off the bottom of the table.

The Sky Blues now have a good opportunity to come away with another positive result against a Newcastle side who remain unconvincing to start the season.

Newcastle have conceded a league-high 97 shots and look vulnerable at the back, while recent history shows they find away games a challenge, winning just five of their last 21 in the EPL.

I'll back Frank Lampard's side in the Double Chance market with both teams also tipped to find the back of the net. Barnes is in good form to start the season and is solid value to get amongst the goals from the left wing.
  • Newcastle have failed to win 16 of their last 21 EPL away games
  • Newcastle have seen BTTS land in five of their last seven games in all comps
  • Coventry are coming off a 1-0 win over Forest before the break
  • Newcastle lost 4-1 to Leeds in their last away game
  • Harvey Barnes has three goal contributions in his last three games

Coventry vs Newcastle Head To Head

Newcastle have won seven of the last eight league meetings between the teams, including five on the trot - but obviously their last clash in the Premier League was back in 2001.

Coventry Form Analysis

Not an ideal start to life back in the Premier League for Coventry, but at least they went into the break in high spirits.

After failing to score in four straight league defeats, Coventry buckled down and managed to grind out a 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest in their most-recent outing, with Jay Dasilva scoring the only goal of the game in the second half.

That was Coventry's first win in the EPL since 2001.

While Coventry remain in the relegation zone, they've had a tough draw to open the season, facing Arsenal, Man City and Brighton - the league's top three teams.

Coventry Team News

Haji Wright (quad), Luke Woolfenden (knee), Josh Eccles (calf) and Aurele Amenda (calf) remain sidelined with injury, while Taiwo Awoniyi is still suspended.

Coventry Possible Starting XI (3-4-2-1): Carl Rushworth; Stephen Mfuni, Bobby Thomas, Ethan Pinnock; Caleb Yirenkyi, Frank Onyeka, Matt Grimes, Jay Dasilva; Jack Rudoni, Ephron Mason-Clark; Brandon Thomas-Asante

Newcastle Form Analysis

Newcastle have gone unbeaten in four of their five games to open the Premier League season, but I think that flatters them.

Matthias Jaissle's side have conceded a total of 97 shots to opposition teams across the opening five rounds - the most of any side in the EPL.

The Magpies were demolished 4-1 in their last away game against Leeds and almost let slip of a early lead against newly-promoted Hull at home, holding on for a 2-1 victory courtesy of Joe Willock and Lewis Hall's strikes inside the opening seven minutes.

With just five wins from their last 21 away outings in the league, Newcastle have a point to prove in this one.

Newcastle Team News

Defender Tino Livramento, forward Anthony Elanga, midfielder Jacob Ramsey and goalkeeper Ewen Jaouen have been ruled out with injuries.

Midfield pair Joelinton and Nico Gonzalez and defender Dan Burn all remain in some doubt, but could feature on Monday night.

Barnes set up both goals against Hull and will be a key figure on the wing in Elanga's absence.

Newcastle Possible Starting XI (4-2-3-1): Lukas Hornicek; Lewis Miley, Malick Thiaw, Sven Botman, Lewis Hall; Sean Steur, Joe Willock; Jacob Murphy, Matias Fernandez-Pardo, Harvey Barnes; Yoane Wissa

Verdict

Coventry can come away with at least a point against a Newcastle side who haven't convinced to start the season.
