2% Rotation #200157: English Premier League: Sunday 2% OVER 2.5 -165 in Wolverhampton vs Newcastle United @ 11:30 AM ET - Wolverhampton has struggled early this season but they faced a tough schedule. They were shutout by Arsenal but scored 3 goals in the other two matches. Trouble is they conceded 9 goals in their 3 matches thus far and I expect them to struggle to shut down Newcastle as well. The goal-scoring will come however as the Wolves will take advantage of a Newcastle side that in EPL road games has allowed an average of 2 goals per match last 9 matches. Newcastle United has scored 7 goals in last 3 meetings between these clubs and all 3 matches totaled at least 3 goals. The Wolves have scored 5 goals in last 3 matches across all competitions. In Wolverhampton's last 6 EPL matches at home, they have conceded an average of 2.5 goals per match. I also want to add that Newcastle's road match in EPL action this season was a 1-1 draw at Bournemouth but a debatable VAR decision late prevented Newcastle from losing that match 2-1 which is what should have happened. The scoring chances will again be there in this road match for Newcastle and I love the Wolves to be aggressive on the attack on their home pitch. In the last 9 meetings between these clubs in EPL action at Wolverhampton, both clubs have scored in all 9 meetings! Also, entering this weeks action no club had allowed more shots than Newcastle. We are going to see plenty of great scoring chances here and I can't see anything less than a 2-1 final in this one and fully expecting 4 or more. 2% OVER 2.5 -165 in Wolverhampton
