| Club – Newcastle United |
| Manager – Bruce |
| Usually plays 4-5-1/5-4-1 |
• Played in vast majority of Premier League seasons.
• Promoted back to the Premier League in 2017.
• Stayed up fairly comfortably in 2019/20.
• Can be prone to losing games by two or three goals on occasions having conceded 2 or more goals in 5 of their 6 previous Premier League matches since beating Bournemouth (1-4).
• New signings Lewis, Fraser and Wilson give the club a boost after few signings of huge quality in recent times.
• Wilson and Frasier, who have reached double figures in goals/assists in recent Premier League seasons, have performed especially well away from home, particularly on big pitches with their skill and pace to find more space and may be worth looking out for.
The afforementioned players have recently arrived at the club and were not in great form after the restart, and may lack some match sharpness but have quality to be effective in an attacking sense when they are in form.
