Crystal Palace and Newcastle meet at Selhurst Park with both sides in need of a Premier League boost.
After an upturn in form, Pierre Sage and his side came crashing down to earth at Brighton last Sunday, losing 5-0 to their rivals on a dark day for all connected with the club.
That was followed up by a somewhat respectable draw away to Besiktas in the Europa League but the new manager knows pressure will grow unless results start to pick up.
Similarly, Matthias Jaissle’s honeymoon spell is long over after a run of three losses in four. That has included two 4-1 away losses and a repeat here would ring the alarm bells on Tyneside.
It’s set up to be a fascinating clash with the need to avoid defeat perhaps overriding the need to win. Which club will be happier come Sunday evening?

Crystal Palace vs. Newcastle prediction
Prior to being utterly routed in the M23 derby, Palace were starting to show signs of progression under their new manager.
Sage had masterminded a win over former manager Oliver Glasner and goals were starting to fly in.
We are backing them to get back on track with the backing of their fans against an out of sorts Newcastle side.
Score Prediction: Crystal Palace 2, Newcastle 1 (+900 at DraftKings)

Crystal Palace vs. Newcastle best bets
We’ve picked three betting angles for Crystal Palace vs. Newcastle.
An easy place to start with our prediction but not without merit.
Neither of these sides are solid at the back with 31 goals conceded in their combined 14 league games.
We could be set for a low-key thriller in South London.
A 2-1 tip means this is an obvious next stop.
As noted, both sides are very leaky at the back and have been involved in numerous high scoring games already this season.
Newcastle have lost their last two away games 4-1 while Palace have won and lost games 3-2 as well as that 5-0 rout by Brighton.
Let’s hope for more of the same here.
Mateta has missed much of the early season with a hamstring injury but looks to be returning to full fitness as shown by his goal in the draw at Besiktas.
He is likely to start up top here over Jorgen Strand Larsen and Newcastle are one of his favorite opponents, having scored both goals in a 2-1 win in this fixture last season.
Might he be the difference again?
