da stake casino: Although the Magpies sit in 11th position in the table, which would usually be comfortable at this stage of the season, they are only 4 points away from the relegation zone. Whilst the focus has been on Aston Villa’s relegation chances, Newcastle have also taken some interest especially with the decision to sack Chris Hughton in December, the appointment of Alan Pardew and the sale of Andy Carroll all being questioned.
da marjack bet: The Toon Army go into this game with only one victory in their last 10 league games and will be without key players Cheik Tiote and Leon Best for a game against an in-form Wolves side. Despite Kevin Nolan scoring goals into double figures, the team are clearly missing the presence of Andy Carroll up front.
Wolves are the in-form team out of all the relegation candidates with only 1 defeat in their last six games, they are undefeated in their last four and a victory at Villa Park from England debutant Matt Jarvis could only have boosted morale.

Despite being in the relegation zone, Mick McCarthy’s men will be only 1 point behind Newcastle if they are to win on the road again at St James’ Park. However, despite what the form guide suggests, Wolves have only won twice away from home this season and have the worst away record in the division.
In contrast, Newcastle has scored the most goals in the Premier League at home behind Manchester United. However, without players like Tiote and Best, they could struggle against a Wolves team who are on some very good form and might just edge it.
Prediction: Newcastle United 1-2 Wolverhampton Wanderers
