Newcastle united this season they became a team that gave a new color to the top of the standings, newcastle united after being in the mid-table for a long time in the previous season but this season they were able to be in the best place in the standings table which is a pretty good achievement for them.
Newcastle united are chasing Champions league tickets for next season which is their main target this season. Eddie Howe was able to bring a pretty hot atmosphere in the EPL this season where he managed to beat the big teams in every game they played. Newcastle United also has a pretty solid defense this season where they have only conceded 26 goal the 32 matches they have played.
Tonight Newcastle is against Southampton, and this is a very good opportunity for Newcastle to get lots of goals and add to the points on the standings so that they manage to stay in the top three at the top of the standings, and the chances of getting a Champions League ticket will be high. Newcastle and Manchester United are only a few points apart at the top of the standings. I'm sure Newcastle will provide a considerable distance for Manchester United, so they won't be easily chased by them.
Newcastles goal difference is already quite good so it is not that important to score a lot, but rather to secure the the three points under all circumstances. We are probably also going to see a change at the very top of the table for a long time this season as Manchester City will take the lead. I think any other outcome in the game against Fulham would be a surprise. They are now unbeaten for 17 games in a row and Haaland is on fire with 40 scorer points in total now. This is probably the all-time record in the premier league already, but I am sure he is going to add some points to that number until the end of the season. 7 games to go to make his goal count 40.
