Newcastle United are eager to recover from a heart-breaking Tyne and Wear derby defeat and given their fine home record, our prediction leans toward a 2-1 Magpies win. Eddie Howe’s men failed to impress in the local derby, with Nick Woltemade’s strange own-goal helping Sunderland pick up all three points from the match. Newcastle now return to St. James’ Park to face Fulham in the EFL Cup quarter-final and you should know that they have been averaging 2.00 goals per home game of late. Experienced defender Dan Burn limped off with injury in the Tyne and Wear derby, but Switzerland international Fabian Schar should be an adequate substitute.
The Cottagers, on the other hand, are brimming with confidence following a 3-2 win over. As 5.00 goals per game have been scoring in Fulham’s last four league matches, Over 2.5 goals betting option should definitely be considered. Both Rodrigo Muniz and Ryan Sessegnon continue to miss out with injuries, but the duo was not missed at all in the Turf Moor triumph.
Alongside aforementioned Over 2.5 goals market, Home Win seems like value bet as Newcastle have won 87% of their last 8 home games in all competitions. Nick Woltemade to score bet also looks tempting as the summer recruit is eager to make amends for the own-goal he scored in Sunday’s derby.
This EFL Cup match will be played on Wednesday 17 December 2025 at 20:15.
