Newcastle’s top-four hopes have been hampered by too many draws of late and they will be determined to pick up maximum points at Bournemouth.

The Cherries have lost five of their six Premier League fixtures since the World Cup break and were beaten by the Magpies in the EFL Cup.

Slow starts often hurt the hosts, so 5/4 for United to lead at half-time and full-time is our first Bournemouth vs Newcastle prediction.

Bournemouth Odds

Bournemouth are second from bottom following Saturday’s 1-0 defeat at Brighton, having picked up just one point since the restart.

Kaoru Mitoma’s 87th-minute header was a devastating blow to Gary O’Neil’s side, who have lost nine of their last 11 league games either side of Qatar 2022.

O’Neil handed debuts to new additions Hamed Traore and Antoine Semenyo, two of his six January signings.

“I’m disappointed for the lads because they gave a lot, and they deserve some points,” said the manager.

““I thought Semenyo and Traore were very good, I thought they were a big reason as to why we were a threat. I thought Dango (Ouattara) was excellent as well.

“I was pleased with the new lads, pleased with how they settled, so there were some positives.”

Just one goal scored in six top-flight fixtures highlights how tough it will be for the Cherries to get out of trouble, though.

The Magpies have the best defensive record in the division both at home and away, so 5/4 for the visitors to prevail without conceding appeals from the Bournemouth vs Newcastle odds.

Last Bournemouth line-up: Neto, Mepham, Smith, Senesi, Zemura, Lerma, Ouattara, Traore, Billing, Anthony, Semenyo.

Bournemouth will check on the fitness of midfielder Marcus Tavernier and forward Dominic Solanke. O’Neil also confirmed that goalkeeper Neto will become the new club captain in place of defender Lloyd Kelly.

Newcastle United Odds

Newcastle’s 1-1 draw with West Ham at St James’ Park was their fourth stalemate in five league matches, with the other three being goalless.

They could hardly have got off to a better start when Callum Wilson ended his 10-game drought in the third minute after being played through by Sean Longstaff.

However, the Hammers levelled via Lucas Paqueta and Eddie Howe’s side slipped to fourth behind Manchester United.

“Because of our form this season, these types of games feel like defeats,” commented Howe.

“When you’re in my shoes, it’s important to see the bigger perspective and see other things. I have to make sure the players don’t overreact to what is a point.

“People might say it’s a disappointment, but it depends on what context you’re looking at it in. You can see four draws in five, or you can see 16 games unbeaten.”

It is also worth remembering that Newcastle have won three EFL Cup ties in between those league draws.

United will still miss the suspended Bruno Guimaraes here, but record signing Alexander Isak could return from concussion.

Anthony Gordon appeared as a second-half substitute against the Hammers following his £45million switch from Everton and should be sharper for that.

This is a good chance for the Magpies to show they are here to stay in the race for Champions League places.

We’re going with 23/4 for a 2-0 away win to finish off our Bournemouth vs Newcastle betting tips.

Last Newcastle line-up: Pope, Trippier, Botman, Schar, Burn, Joelinton, Willock, Longstaff, Wilson, Saint-Maximin, Almiron.

Defenders Matt Targett, Javier Manquillo and Emil Krafth remain on the injured list.
