Newcastle vs Qarabag Tips
Check out our betting tips and a bet builder tip ahead of the Champions League knockout tie.
Tip 1: Newcastle Over 3.5 Goals
In the first leg, Newcastle were rampant. They amassed 22 attempts on goal, 14 of which were target, and had 39 touches inside the opposition box.
Arguably, the margin of victory could have been wider, but the Magpies can hardly have any qualms about a five-goal advantage ahead of the second leg.
Although they had a lengthy away trip in midweek, Newcastle acquitted themselves well against Manchester City over the weekend, putting Pep Guardiola’s title-chasing side under pressure before falling to a 2-1 defeat at the Etihad.
Given the way Newcastle tore Qarabag to shreds last week, going 3-0 up inside 33 minutes, another drubbing isn’t speculative.
For my first tip, I’m leaning into the home team total goals market, and Newcastle Over 3.5 goals has some merit.
Tip 2: Anthony Gordon to Score 2+ Goals
Anthony Gordon has been sublime in the Champions League. A four-goal haul in the first leg saw him overtake Alan Shearer to become the club’s leading scorer in the competition.
He also became only the second Englishman, after Harry Kane (11), to reach double digits in a single European campaign, which is an incredible feat.
Apart from his record-breaking figures, Gordon is always looking to dart in behind the backline, and he often finishes with aplomb.
While you wouldn’t put it past him to grab another hat-trick, I’m going with Gordon to grab a double instead. An intriguing price has been tagged onto this market.
Tip 3: Newcastle to Win by 3 Goals, Both Teams to Score in First Half, Anthony Gordon to Score 2+ Goals
Kick off your bet builder with Newcastle to wrap up this tie in style. The winning margin line looks tempting, and a three-goal victory for Newcastle seems attainable.
Although Qarabag struggled to break down Newcastle in the first leg, they have to go for it this time. The first 45 minutes on Tyneside could be entertaining, and the BTTS line could be met.
Complete the bet builder with Gordon to get in among the goals again. While he underlined a stunning performance in the first leg with four strikes, a double could be on the cards.
