Newcastle preview: Strong start
Having arrived mid-way through pre-season, Matthias Jaissle has got an immediate response from his Newcastle squad as they begin with four points collected from their opening couple of games in the Premier League.
The Magpies twice took the lead against Liverpool in their opener, eventually conceding a late equaliser, before then easing to an impressive 2-0 victory away at Tottenham Hotspur with goals scored by Anthony Elanga and Yoane Wissa.
Bournemouth preview: Frustrated Cherries
Andoni Iraola departed AFC Bournemouth over the summer but was replaced by former Borussia Monchengladbach boss Marco Rose quite quickly and their performances have been strong at the start of this season – but their results have frustrated them.
The Cherries had the lead until late on before a turnaround and a defeat against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium before they conceded a late equaliser and had to settle for a 1-1 draw with Everton at the Vitality Stadium last week.

Newcastle vs Bournemouth prediction
Home advantage should ensure that Newcastle once again play with the energy and intensity that they have thus far shown under Jaissle, who is known for that style from his time at Red Bull Salzburg. Bournemouth showed against City that they are capable on the counter-attack, as was the case under Iraola, and so both teams scoring would seem a very decent bet for this one on Tyneside.
