Just in: Paul Merson predicts the score for Sunday’s game between Bournemouth and Newcastle
Newcastle United are preparing for the long trip to Bournemouth to play the Cherries at the Vitality Stadium at 2pm on Sunday live on Sky Sports.
The Magpies will be looking to double their points tally for the season with a second win of the season, while Bournemouth will be looking to add to the point they took off Nottingham Forest.
Life is never easy for Newcastle when they travel to the Vitality Stadium but Eddie Howe undoubtedly has the superior side.
Paul Merson has backed the Magpies to win comfortably
Paul Merson believes Newcastle will rise to the occasion and see off Bournemouth as he made his prediction for Sportskeeda.
“Newcastle were poor last week, but they still hung on with 10 men and managed to get three important points. I think they’ll beat Bournemouth, who could find it thought without [Dominic] Solanke’s goals. I’m expecting the Cherries to struggle this season.
“Prediction: Bournemouth 0-2 Newcastle”
Merson thinks Raheem Sterling is the answer for Newcastle’s right-wing problem
Merson then went on a rant about Newcastle moving for Raheem Sterling and having a front three of Sterling, Anthony Gordon and Alexander Isak. In fairness, I’ve heard worse ideas, but I can’t see it happening.
Paul Merson has more confidence in us than Chris Sutton it seems, but both are backing us to come away with a win.
Another three points for Eddie Howe’s Mighty Mags on Sunday?
