Coventry vs Newcastle - Premier League Betting Tips (12/10/2026)

Coventry and Newcastle will meet looking to make it back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time this season. Newcastle United are favourites at 2.05 with bet365, with hosts Coventry City available at 3.25. The draw can be backed at 3.60.

We expect Newcastle to be too strong for newly-promoted Coventry despite the fact they head hear on the back of their first win of the campaign. Newcastle are looking much stronger due to a host of players now returning from injury and can take all three points.

• Newcastle have key players coming back from injury and have more options than in recent weeks.

• Newcastle beat high-flying Hull before the international break and showed better progress under Matthias Jaissle.
