Wednesday's Premier League predictions including Newcastle United vs. Liverpool

Sports Mole provides score predictions for both of Wednesday's Premier League fixtures - Tottenham Hotspur vs. Fulham and Newcastle United vs. Liverpool.

Tottenham Hotspur round off 2020 with a home Premier League match against London rivals Fulham on Wednesday evening.

Spurs have enjoyed a largely positive 12 months under Jose Mourinho, but they are without a win in four league matches and have slipped down the table.

Fulham are in need of points for a different reason as they enter this match inside the relegation zone, despite some improved performances.

We say: Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 Fulham


Tottenham are at risk of dropping out of the title picture if their winless run stretches on much longer.

A home meeting with a Fulham side in the relegation zone might just be the perfect fixture for Mourinho's men, even if the visitors have gone four without defeat.

Tottenham have won seven and drawn three of their last 11 final fixtures of a calendar year, and we can see them adding another win to that tally on Wednesday.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Newcastle vs. Liverpool (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

Liverpool bring an unforgettable and historic 2020 to a close at St James' Park on Wednesday night as the champions take on Newcastle United.

Jurgen Klopp's side will be looking to return to winning ways after a disappointing draw with West Bromwich Albion last time out, while Newcastle are now winless in four across all competitions.

We say: Newcastle United 1-2 Liverpool


Liverpool are usually good at responding to disappointing results, although usually that comes at home after dropping points away from home whereas this is the other way around.

We can see Newcastle scoring given Liverpool's deepening defensive injury crisis, but with the league's top scorer in Mohamed Salah and both Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino beginning to find form again, the visitors should have enough to return to winning ways, even if one of that trio is rested.

Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.
