Cardiff – Newcastle Prediction & Picks (18.08.2018)

Newcastle-Utd-vs.-Cardiff

Cardiff – Newcastle FREE PICKS

The first home game of PhD student Cardiff City is played against Newcastle United. Both clubs lost their first game and hope that a better result will be achieved this weekend.

Cardiff City:

As a PhD student, Cardiff City knows that it is going to be a difficult season. Neil Warnock’s team is relegation candidate number one according to the bookmakers and to prove the opposite Cardiff City has to take three points this weekend in its own Cardiff City Stadium. Especially in their own stadium The Bluebirds will have to score points this season. The first three home games this Cardiff City plays are not very easy. After Newcastle United, Arsenal and Manchester City will soon be visiting Wales, so this weekend the first home game of this season has to be won. Last season, Cardiff City lost only 3 out of 23 matches in its own stadium, so that promises something for this season.

Last weekend they celebrated their comeback in the Premier League at Cardiff City with a match visiting AFC Bournemouth. The Bluebirds ran into a 1-0 deficit against Bournemouth after a quarter game and the Warnock men had a draw for the ninety minutes. The game against Bournemouth eventually lost 2-0 to Cardiff City, although The Bluebirds certainly did not leave a bad impression at the Vitality Stadium.

Newcastle United:

At Newcastle United they know exactly how they feel at the moment at Cardiff City – The Magpies lost their opening match last season (0-2 against Tottenham Hotspur). However, that defeat was not a reflection of the season that one would turn at Newcastle United, as The Magpies eventually ended up in the left row. A performance of a size so last season of Rafael Benítez and his men, but such a performance does not seem to be in season. The acquisitions of Newcastle United are small and besides, opponents increasingly know how to fight this Rafael Benítez team.

So also Tottenham Hotspur, which again was the opponent of Newcastle United in the opening weekend. St. James’ Park was shot three times in the first eighteen minutes and it also hit three times. Twice for The Spurs and on behalf of Newcastle United, Joselu, who also made the first goal for Newcastle United last season, was able to find the net. Benítez saw his team create a lot of chances with a 1-2 deficit and Newcastle hit the woodwork twice, but eventually had to settle for a narrow defeat against the Spurs. The game of Newcastle United, however, was very promising, also because The Magpies could play some more football from Benítez. Something that was not always the case last season, although the defensive playing style of last season has proved extremely successful.
