You Simply Can’t Ignore The Draw and The 1-1 Correct Score When Wolves Play Newcastle
Newcastle took four points off Wolves in the league last season after a comfortable 3-0 home win and then also a draw in this repeat clash back in October 2023.
And it’s the DRAW – that happended in this fixture last term – that we are most interested in when looking at the recent Wolves vs Newcastle head-to-head stats.
Why? Well, a staggering 10 of the last 21 meetings between the sides ended all square, including 50% of the last four.
Wolves Have Also Drawn 5 Of Their Last 6 Home League Games vs the Magpies
Oh, and then when just looking at the games played at Molineux since 2019, we also found that a monster five of the last six also ended in draws – which is a healthy 83% strike-rate.
That’s not all. After delving deeper into these Wolves vs Newcastle draws, we also noticed that six of the last 11 ended 1-1. Plus, four of the last six played at Wolves also ended 1-1 – Wow.
This means the 1-1 correct score has been operating at a cracking 55% strike-rate in the last 11 meetings – so, if having a wager with the best football betting sites in the UK, this has to be an outcome on your radar.
Finally, the tightness of past clashes between Wolves and Newcastle is also supported in their overall league head-to-head stats – with Wolves having 36 wins, Newcastle just back on 33 and there having been 27 draw. In short, not a lot between all three outcomes.
Four Of The Last Six Head-to-Heads Saw OVER 2.5 Goals
In addition to the strong draw bias in this game in recent meetings between the sides, there has also been plenty of goals.
Both head-to-heads last season went OVER 2.5 GOALS, with the already mentioned 3-0 Newcastle win and the 2-2 draw in this repeat clash. While four of the last six also saw 3+ goals scored.
With all the score draws, it’s also no shocker to see that both teams have scored in 10 of the last 12 – which is another 83% return.

Wolves Unbeaten at Home In Their Last Six vs Newcastle
Despite the shaky start to the season by Wolves in the league, the good news for their fans is they seem to do okay at home when facing Newcastle.
Wanderers have not lost in their last six to Newcastle when playing them in front of their own fans.
Yes, five of those six have been draws – as mentioned – but the fact still remains that the last time Newcastle beat Wolves away in the league was in 2017 when they were both in the Championship.
Overall, recent form will heavily point to Newcastle winning this Sunday 4:30pm match, but it’s also hard to ignore the good record that Wolves have at home against the Magpies – albeit with a lot of draws thrown into the mix, so will we see the pair sharing the points once again?
