After an incredible 2022 so far which has seen Newcastle move nine points clear of the relegation zone, the Magpies have nine games remaining to confirm their safety in the Premier League.
After struggling under former boss Steve Bruce and sitting bottom of the Premier League for parts of the season, it took until February 8, 2022 for the Magpies to finally exit the relegation zone with Eddie Howe at the helm. Now, Newcastle sit 14th in the Premier League table, closer to Aston Villa in 9th than Watford in 18th.
Premier League safety now seems all but secure at Newcastle with nine games remaining to pick up a few remaining points. After their spot in the division is secured for next season, building on the current squad in the summer transfer window will become the priority.
