In contrast, Newcastle have won on the final day in six of the last seven seasons, and they come into this match both more rested and in better form than their hosts. It was not too long ago that this fixture was being touted as a potential final-day relegation decider, with Newcastle sat in the bottom three at Christmas and winning just one of their first 20 games of the campaign – incidentally against Burnley in the reverse of this contest.
The turnaround since then has been remarkable, though, with only Liverpool, Man City and Tottenham having picked up more Premier League points than the Magpies so far this calendar year. Indeed, Eddie Howe’s men have already won more games in 2022 than they managed in both 2021 and 2020, and a top-half finish remains possible should they win, Brighton & Hove Albion lose and Brentford fail to win on the final day.

The battle for Premier League survival is now down to two teams after Everton secured their top-flight status on Thursday night, and of those two teams it is Burnley who enter the final day in the strongest position. Should Burnley end up going down then they will look back on Wout Weghorst’s late missed chance in that match – or more accurately.
The equation for Jackson’s men is simple: match or better Leeds’ score, and they will enjoy a seventh successive season in the top flight next term. Burnley’s vastly superior goal difference over Leeds means that a win over Newcastle would be enough, regardless of what Jesse Marsch’s side do away to Brentford. However, there is only goal difference separating the two sides either side of the dreaded dotted line, so any failure by Burnley to win would open the door for Leeds to leapfrog them at the final hurdle.

At any other stage of the season it might be difficult to back a Burnley win here, but the result is so much more important to the hosts than it is to Newcastle, and that could make the difference in a game of fine margins. Burnley are also in good form at home, whereas Newcastle’s away form has been poor of late, so we are backing the home side to pick up the win they need to stay in the Premier League for another season.
It’s going to take a lot for Burnley to manage a result against a Newcastle side that is consistently and undeniably showing the credentials of a top-half, European-chasing team. Having said that, character, guts and remarkable resolve have been prominent and endearing themes of Burnley’s modern football-defying stint in the top flight. And, while a win would be a fairy-tale result in this massively significant clash, a draw is certainly not beyond their reach.
Burnley 1-0 Newcastle United, predicted by us.
