Pre-match · Sep 17, 2026
Hull's unbeaten start puts them 4th with 8 points, while Newcastle sit 12th with 5, but the home/away split flatters neither side: Newcastle are winless at home with 2 draws from 2, and Hull have taken 4 points from their 2 away games. The gap is real but built on a tiny four-match sample, so it is a hint rather than a settled order.

Attack
Newcastle's home attack is the more productive of the two, averaging 2.0 goals per home match against Hull's 1.5 away, but Hull's overall scoring rate of 1.2 per match is dragged down by a slow start and their away figure is more respectable. The gap is real but modest, and Hull's ability to score first in half their games gives them a route into the match.

Defence
Hull's defence is the standout unit in this fixture, conceding just 0.5 goals per match across the season and 1.0 away from home, while Newcastle concede 2.0 per match both overall and at St James' Park. That is a full goal and a half of difference per game, and it is the clearest signal in the data that Hull can frustrate the hosts.

Goals & Timing
Pre-match · Sep 17, 2026
Newcastle are most dangerous late, with 29% of their goals coming in the final 15 minutes and the same share in the 61-75 band, while Hull score 40% of their goals in the 31-45 window and another 40% in the 16-30 band. The visitors are fast starters and Newcastle are second-half scorers, so the game could open up after the break if Hull's early pressure does not produce a lead.

Newcastle's home matches have been the highest-scoring environment in this fixture, with 100% of their games at St James' Park going over 2.5 goals, while Hull's away matches are far tighter at 50% over 2.5. Newcastle have scored in every league match this season, but they have also conceded in every home game, so the over leans on their defensive frailty as much as their attacking output.

NewcastleHullHead-to-Head · LAST 10 MEETINGS
History between these two is balanced and low-scoring, with Newcastle winning 3 and Hull 2 of the last 10 meetings, and 5 draws. The most recent meeting was a 2-0 Newcastle win, but it came outside this competition, so the pattern is one of tight, evenly matched contests rather than a clear edge for either side.

About The Match
Newcastle's home matches have been the league's most reliable source of goals, with every game at St James' Park this season going over 2.5, while Hull arrive as the division's stingiest defence, conceding just 0.5 goals per match across their four league games. The market prices Newcastle as clear favourites at 60% to win, but Hull's unbeaten start and 75% clean-sheet rate make this a far tighter contest than the table gap suggests. The key uncertainty is whether Hull's compact, low-possession approach can suppress a Newcastle attack that has scored in every league match but also conceded in every home game.
