Pundits make Newcastle United predictions for Brighton Premier League clash

The experts believe Newcastle United will return north with a point against Brighton this weekend. A dominant opening-day win over Nottingham Forest means the Magpies travel to the South Coast buoyant and looking to lay down a marker in the Premier League.

However, Graham Potter’s men also head into the clash full of confidence. Brighton pulled off a shock win away to Manchester United last Sunday and finished above Newcastle in May.

Eddie Howe & Co did claim a 2-1 victory against Brighton at St James’ Park towards the back end of the campaign but the game is evenly poised while the season remains in its infancy. The pundits anticipate a closely-fought affair at the Amex Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
