Newcastle vs Preston predictions and football betting tips for this week’s EFL Cup fixture on Tuesday 25th October and the best odds for this all Championship fixture.
Newcastle host Preston in the EFP Cup this week and it is the home side who are favourites to win following a fantastic run of form since their last EFL Cup match – a 2-0 home win over Wolves. Preston have also found some good form after a shakey start and they go into this match unbeaten in seven.
Newcastle vs Preston Predictions
It is hard to bet against Newcastle at the moment, especially at home where they are scoring plenty of goals. They beat Ipswich 3-0 at the weekend, after making a flying start with a goal in the first minute. Despite predicting a Newcastle win here I do expect Preston to score. They have netted eight times in their last four away matches including the 3-2 extra time win at Bournemouth in the last round. Given that, my first Newcastle vs Preston betting tip is for Newcastle to win and both teams to score. The best odds for this are 12/5 with bet365.

First Goalscorer Tips
The league will be the priority for both these teams, especially Newcastle, but I still expect a strong team to be played in this one so we have a tough decision for a first goalscorer. I am going to side away from the Newcastle strikers and go for a player who not only scored the opening goal in the last round, but also got on the scoresheet on Saturday against Ipswich. The best odds for Matt Richie to score first against Preston this week are 15/2 with Paddy Power and that’s my second Newcastle vs Preston prediction.

Newcastle vs Preston Team News
Benitez has confirmed that he will make ‘a number of changes’ to the Newcastle starting line-up for this one. Mitrovic could start up front and Perez could keep his place after two goals on Saturday. Preston could also make changes as they prioritise the league campaign.
