2 Best Bets for Liverpool vs Newcastle on Feb 26

1. Both teams to score & Over 2.5 Goals (-105)

The Reds are the firm favorites to win this match and are keen not to drop points to make life easier for them at the final stretch of the season. Newcastle have a fine record against the top four teams, losing just once in six games and winning three, per EPL betting trends.

Their past three matches saw Newcastle beating Birmingham 3-2, losing 4-0 to Manchester City, and beating Nottingham Forest 4-3.

Newcastle recorded a very decent outcome of four wins from six away matches in the Premier League, in which they banged in 13 goals whilst conceding 10. They recorded no draws but instead suffered defeat twice.

It’s risky to back Liverpool ML at -195. Anything but a home win for Liverpool will be a massive surprise, and with goals flowing freely, Newcastle could be in for a hammering but we do expect the visitors to contribute on the scoresheet.

If you’re looking for a great bet to include in your soccer picks and parlays, back the combo of both teams to score & over 2.5 goals.

Bet on Both teams to score & Over 2.5 Goals (-125)

 

2. Best Player Prop Bet: Mo Salah to Score (-105)

Mohamed Salah opened the scoring in the 14th minute on Sunday with a close-range shot that took a heavy deflection off of Nathan Ake, per Liverpool vs Newcastle stats. Salah turned from scorer to assist as Dominik Szoboszlai wrong-footed Ederson to double Liverpool’s lead in the 37th minute.

He scored his 241st Liverpool goal, tying Gordon Hodgson, and climbed to third in the Anfield club’s all-time scoring charts to cement his legacy.
