Match kicks off at St. James Park between Newcastle United and Crystal Palace

In a couple of minutes we will start with the broadcast of the match Newcastle United vs Crystal Palace, corresponding to the 30th round of the Premier League.

Last weekend, Crystal Palace lost to Chelsea in the FA Cup semifinals by 2-0 and lost the opportunity to face Liverpool in the final of the tournament, although it was a tough blow, this game will be the test to see the mood of the match. 

This is the starting eleven that Viera will send to St. James Park to try to get another away win and keep on winning in this closing game of the campaign.

Crystal Palace Eagles love to put Newcastle United in trouble because in their last 9 out of 10 matches at St James Park, the team that alludes to the crystal castle in England has scored at least one goal.
For Crystal Palace, playing away is not a sign of goal drought as they have scored an average of 2.5 goals in their last 9 away games in the Premier League.
The Palaces Eagles play well away as they have won 6 times in their last 7 matches. 

This is Newcastle United's starting eleven to face Crystal Palace at home and in the company of their people in this rescheduled match. 

At least in the last 3 matches played between Crystal Palace and Newcastle United, the goals have been 2.5 on average, and if you take into account the last 5 duels, in all of them there has been at least one goal throughout the 90 minutes so there will be a guaranteed show according to the statistics. 

Crystal Palace suffers from playing in midweek in the Premier League because of their 38 matches played on Wednesdays, the Eagles won only 16% of their games (6 wins). So far, they are the worst team to manage a winning streak in the Premier League when it comes to midweek play. 

The last 6 matches between Newcastle United and Crystal Palace have ended in 3 wins for the home side and 3 for the visitors, with the last 3 duels being the ones painted in favor of the Palace eagles. However, today the balance could be tipped to one side as the winner would have more wins over his rival in case the draw does not happen in today's duel. 

The wait is over, Newcastle United will host Crystal Palace in the match pending to the 30th round of the Premier League, both teams will be looking for three points to continue increasing their advantage over the teams in the relegation zone, however, it is almost a fact that both will be present in the next season of the Premier League.

From Ivory Coast to the world, Wilfried Zaha will be the player to watch for this match. From 2017 onwards, the African has played 19,345 minutes with the Eagles jersey in which he has become a real reference in attack with 48 goals in his personal account, he has also appeared 235 times in the starting lineup and has assisted on 41 occasions. Also, on 39 occasions he has received the yellow card and only once he was sent off with a straight red card, Zaha could be the unbalancing factor that puts the balance in favor of Crystal Palace.

Callum Wilson is an English player who plays as a striker and has shown a good level and has contributed to the team's offense so far this season. He is a striker with a great ability, with characteristics of a classic 9, who goes well through the air, more of a box-to-box striker, who holds the ball and knows how to generate scoring options and define them.

Newcastle and Crystal Palace have met on a total of 48 occasions (27 wins for Newcastle, 9 draws and 12 wins for Crystal Palace) where the balance is entirely in favor of the locals. In terms of goals, Newcastle is slightly better with 68 goals scored while Crystal Palace has scored 40 goals. Their last meeting dates back to matchday 9 of the 2021-22 season where both teams drew by the minimum.

St James' Park, for sponsorship reasons Sports Direct Arena, is a soccer stadium located in the city of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, belonging to the metropolitan county of Tyne and Wear in the North East of England in the United Kingdom. It is the regular home of Newcastle United Football Club, which plays in the Premier League.

On April 2, 2007, the club made a proposal to expand the stadium to 60,000 spectators, as well as to build a convention center, hotels and luxury apartments in the surrounding area, all with a budget of 300 million pounds. In this expansion, the eastern stand was excluded because of the old buildings surrounding that area, which were declared historic by the British government.

After the purchase of the club by millionaire Mike Ashley in 2007, he announced that the expansion was not a priority, although he did make improvements to the boxes and other areas of the stadium. This was because the stadium never reached full capacity, with the average attendance being approximately 45 000 spectators.

On the other side of the coin, Crystal Palace has been one of the most consistent teams throughout this season as the Eagles were never in the relegation zone, but neither in the top positions of the League, Crystal Palace remained in mid-table positions throughout the season. Currently, Crystal Palace has 37 units added that have been the product of 8 wins, 13 draws and 10 defeats.

At the beginning of the campaign, most people put Newcastle in the EFL Championship because they could not get out of the relegation places and at some point, they were placed at the last place overall, however, starting the second half of the season, Newcastle managed to overcome the adversities and managed to get out of the bottom of the general to mid-table zone, avoiding relegation and staying in the Premier League. They are currently 14th in the overall table with 37 points from 9 wins, 10 draws and 13 defeats.

Newcastle and Crystal Palace will meet again in another Premier League match, on the one hand, the locals managed to recover and are currently in the mid-table zone and with 12 points of difference over the first place that will go directly to the Championship, so it could be said that the Newcastle team achieved the goal of staying in the first division and will seek to continue increasing the advantage of units with this duel. On the other hand, Crystal Palace has remained in the mid-table zone all season, having a regular performance which has helped them to remain stable as far as possible.

The Newcastle vs Crystal Palace match will be played at St. James Park Stadium, in Newcastle, England. The kick-off is scheduled at 14:45 pm ET.
