The emotions of the English Premier League continue this weekend when we have matchday 3, full of intense and exciting matches.
With only 2 matchdays played, we have noticed that the protagonist teams of the previous season, i.e., Arsenal and Manchester City, have started at full speed with two excellent victories. However, what is most surprising so far is Brighton, as the team is at the top of the table thanks to the +6 goal difference they currently have.
This is unprecedented, as for a mid-table team to start the season scoring 8 goals in two games makes us think that the level of play of many teams is much higher in 2023/24. As a result, we expect much more interesting matches and, above all, full of goals.
Now, on this matchday 3 of the 2023/24 Premier League season, we will have a spectacular match between two of the big teams in the league.
When:
Sunday, August 27 at 11:30 AM ET at St. James’ Park
Moneyline odds:
Newcastle +123
Liverpool +194
Draw Offs:
+285

Why Bet on Newcastle?
Aston Villa were defeated by Newcastle on the season’s opening day at St. James’ Park by a dreadful 1-5 scoreline. It was a great way to start the season for Eddie Howe’s boys and the fans, but this did not hold up when they visited Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium. The Newcastle fans wanted to surprise City, who were missing De Bruyne, but they failed to perform as they should have.
The northern squad, which still lacks the experience and routine to compete with the elite, found even the depleted City too much of a problem.
Given Newcastle’s performance in the summer (pre-season and start of the Premier League), we believe Howe made some notable changes to the team, and now, it resembles his Bournemouth of the time, when the Cherries tried to attack and control the tempo of the game.
Why Bet on Liverpool?
Liverpool’s latest victim was the aforementioned Bournemouth, whom the Reds defeated last Sunday with an excellent score of 3-1. In the 3rd minute, the Reds conceded the first goal of the match, but all this did was wake them up, as they started to attack menacingly and effectively.
Klopp’s team recovered quickly and increased their aggressiveness, allowing them to reverse the result and go into the break with a 2-1 lead, thanks to goals from Luis Diaz (’28) and Mohamed Salah (’36). Finally, Diogo Jota made it 3-1 in the 62nd minute. It is also worth mentioning that Alexis McAllister, world champion with Argentina, was sent off in the 58th minute, so he will not be available for this match against Newcastle.
Final Betting Analysis: Newcastle vs. Liverpool
In the last 20 meetings between these two teams, Liverpool FC dominates the series with 12 wins. For their part, Newcastle have managed only 2 wins, while 6 matches have ended in a draw.
At MyBookie.ag, we can see that there is a Moneyline that favors Newcastle at +123, while Liverpool starts at +194.
While it is true that both teams have shown a great offense at the beginning of the season, in this match, we expect the defenses to play a key role. Our prediction for this match is a draw on the scoreboard.
Look for a straight win on the Moneyline Draw. For example, if you put $100 on Draw at +285, you’ll see a $285 win with a total payout of $385.
