Newcastle showcased their dominance in the previous meeting between these sides this term after landing a 4-0 win at Portman Road in December. However, the Magpies haven’t completed a league double over Ipswich since 1973-74.

Ipswich have a poor record on the road in this fixture, having failed to win in their last eleven at St. James’ Park. To make matters worse, Newcastle have recorded wins in their last four home matches, and they have scored at least four goals in two matches over that period.

Ipswich’s impending relegation also signals the difference between the top two divisions, and it could become the first time since 2005-06 that all three relegated teams have been confirmed before the start of May.

Newcastle vs. Ipswich Picks

Wins have been in short supply for the Tractor Boys throughout this season, and their relegation could be confirmed this weekend. Newcastle have the quality in the forward areas to claim a straightforward win.
