Newcastle vs Hull City: Predictions, Picks, Odds & Lineups

Newcastle host Hull City at St. James’ Park on Saturday, September 19 (10:00 AM ET / 9:00 AM CT / 7:00 AM PT).

Newcastle will be without the injured Joelinton, Dan Burn and William Osula this weekend, while doubtful pair Ewen Jaouen and Amar Dedic could also miss out; Anthony Elanga, Yoane Wissa, Harvey Barnes and Joe Willock have all found the net already this season and should lead the home attack. Hull City’s absentee list is longer: the injured Eliot Matazo, Darko Gyabi, Jack Butland, Ilyas Ansah, Charlie Hughes, Nobel Mendy and Hidemasa Morita are all out, while the doubtful Paddy McNair could also be missing, leaving Mohamed Belloumi, Ryan Giles, Oliver McBurnie and Regan Slater as the men Hull lean on.

Newcastle have taken 5 points from 3 games without losing so far this season, and Hull City have 8 points from 4 games unbeaten, so neither side arrives short of confidence at St James’ Park. Both have shown they can go without scoring too — Hull drew 0-0 with Aston Villa last time out — and with Newcastle’s own options up front thinned by injury, this looks set up as a tight, low-scoring afternoon rather than an end-to-end shootout.

US viewers can watch Newcastle vs Hull City on NBC and Peacock.

Potential Match-Winners

• Anthony Elanga (Newcastle): Elanga has scored 2 goals in Newcastle’s 3 games, adding 4 shots and 4 chances created — he’s the most direct route to goal in this Newcastle side.
• Yoane Wissa (Newcastle): Wissa has 1 goal and 1 assist from 6 shots this season, and his movement up front gives Newcastle an outlet even with Joelinton and Osula sidelined.
• Mohamed Belloumi (Hull City): Belloumi leads Hull’s attack with 2 goals and 1 assist from 8 shots, and his 3 chances created show he’s just as involved in creating as scoring.

Newcastle vs Hull City Prediction

Newcastle should have enough in Elanga and Wissa to break down a Hull City side that has been hard to beat but hasn’t always found the net, while Hull’s own threats, Belloumi included, look set to be kept quiet by a Newcastle side yet to lose this season. Expect a tight, low-scoring contest at St James’ Park that ends 1-0 to the home side.
