When the Saudi Arabian fund bought Newcastle about three years ago, most expected Newcastle to be among the best English teams. However, last season, they finished seventh, while after six rounds of the 2024/25 season, Eddie Howe's team collected only a solid 11 points. In the previous Premier League round, Newcastle played 1-1 at home against Manchester City. The guests had ball possession and a number of shots on the goal on their side, but Newcastle was good enough to avoid defeat and take one point.
After 10th position last season, most pundits expected Wimbledon to be a mid-table team in League Two again. However, after six matches, they picked up 13 points and are currently in a playoff zone. Wimbledon are without a defeat in the last six matches. In the previous game, they played 0-0 on the road against Bradford City. Guests didn't show much in the attack, but their defense was impressive, so Johnnie Jackson's team picked up another point.
Newcastle vs Wimbledon pick: Over 2.5 goals
Newcastle scored at least one goal in each of the previous seven games. On the other hand, Wimbledon scored at least one goal in five of the last six matches. We should expect at least three goals in the upcoming EFL Cup tie between Newcastle and Wimbledon.
Newcastle team news
Newcastle have problems with missing players. They will be without Sven Botman, Jamaal Lascelles, Callum Wilson, Lewis Miley, and Alexander Isak. Also, Matt Targett is questionable for Tuesday. It is possible that the head coach, Eddie Howe, will decide to rotate the squad and rest the main players against League Two side Wimbledon.
