In my opinion Newcastle is clear favorite of today's match up and should be able to make 3 points at home.

Home ground should really make big difference in this game. Newcastle is excellent front of home crowd. They won last 7 consecutive matches at St. James' Park and conceded only one goal in the process. I don't see easy goals for Nottingham today because they coming for this game without best scorer Awojiyi.

On the other hand Nottingham is one of the worst away team in Premier League. 6 losses in 9 matches on the road with 19 goals conceded in the process. Hard to imagine clean sheet for them. Today they are without best defender Boly (he is suspended). It's huge blow and should have very bad impact on their performance at the back.

Newcastle have big mental advantage before this game as they won in last 5 matches against Nottingham and won last 7 home matches against them in league!

Newcastle winger Gordon is in red hot form front of home crowd - 5 goals and 3 assists in 9 home league matches!

Is really hard to trust for Nottingham on the road and I don't see any other result than 3 points for Eddie Howe side. Last year they won 3:0 at Boxing Day against Leicester and I expect similar story today.

在我看来，纽卡斯尔显然是今天比赛的热门，他们应该能够在主场拿到3分。

主场应该会在这场比赛中起很大作用。纽卡斯尔在主场观众面前表现出色。他们在圣詹姆斯公园球场连续7场获胜，在此过程中只丢了一个球。我不认为诺丁汉今天能轻松进球，因为他们在没有最佳射手阿沃吉伊的情况下参加了这场比赛。

另一方面，诺丁汉是英超联赛中表现最差的客场球队之一，9场客场6负，丢19球。很难想象他们能不失球。今天他们失去了最好的后卫博利(他被禁赛)。这是一个巨大的打击，应该会对他们后防线的表现产生非常糟糕的影响。

纽卡斯尔在这场比赛前有很大的心理优势，因为他们在过去的5场比赛中赢了诺丁汉，并且在联赛中赢得了最近7场主场对阵诺丁汉的比赛!

纽卡斯尔边锋戈登在主场前状态火热——在9场主场比赛中打进5球并送出3次助攻!

诺丁汉在客场真的很难被信任，除了3分，我看不到任何其他结果。去年节礼日他们3:0战胜了莱斯特城，我希望今天会有类似的故事。
