- Alexander Isak has scored seven goals in his last six Premier League appearances.
Can Magpies stop Eagles soaring?
Newcastle had a free weekend while Crystal Palace were in action, and the Eagles are building crucial momentum. With five games left to play in the Premier League this season, Palace are now 14th, 11 points clear of the relegation zone. There were moments when the Eagles were flirting with the drop, but now it feels like they can start preparing for next season.
This climb away from the bottom three has come thanks to two very big results in just over a week. It started with a 1-0 win over Liverpool at Anfield, which nobody saw coming. And normally teams find it hard to build on results like that. However, Palace followed that up with a 5-2 win over West Ham on Sunday, racing to a 4-0 lead inside 31 minutes.
That win was a good result for Newcastle too, as it kept West Ham two points behind the Magpies having played two games more in the European football battle. With Manchester United and Manchester City contesting the FA Cup final — and the Red Devils currently sitting seventh — sixth may be the last spot for European qualification in the Premier League this season.
And fortunately for Newcastle, they currently occupy sixth. Winning three of their past four games, Newcastle are in good form, but they aren’t exactly comfortable given the group of teams separated by just three points. It feels like they cannot afford to be dropping any points at the moment.
