This is how the Premier League form table looks on Wednesday morning, sweet reading for Newcastle United fans.
A dominant win delivered on the road by Eddie Howe’s side.
Hammering Burnley 4-1 at Turf Moor and indeed, the scoreline could have been far wider if United had taken other chances, including Isak’s penalty!
However, that is only small beer compared to the overall excellent display and flowing football, that led to some great team goals and excellent finishes.
So here is the newly updated Premier League form table on Wednesday morning ahead of the weekend, which covers the past six matches for all teams:
An absolutely massive achievement by Eddie Howe and his (small) merry band of available players.
The last six results for Newcastle United with very latest one listed first:
Burnley 1 Newcastle 4
Newcastle 5 Sheff Utd 1
Palace 2 Newcastle 0
Newcastle 4 Tottenham 0
Fulham 0 Newcastle 1
Newcastle 1 Everton 1
As you can see, Newcastle United now in third place in this newly updated Premier League form table.
NUFC with thirteen points from four wins, one draw and one defeat, with fifteen goals scored and five conceded.
Plus, the only two teams that have taken points off Newcastle United in their last seven PL games, are both (Everton and Palace) in the top five of this updated Premier League form table.
As for Saturday’s opponents this coming weekend at St James’ Park, these are Brighton’s last six PL matches, the very most recent listed first:
Brighton 1 Villa 0
Bournemouth 3 Brighton 0
Brighton 0 Man City 4
Burnley 1 Brighton 1
Brighton 0 Arsenal 3
Brentford 0 Brighton 0
So Brighton 16th in the Premier League form table with just the five points from one win, two draws and three defeats, scoring two and conceding eleven.
Brighton getting a rare win AND rare goal in their last match. Undoubtedly catching Villa at the best possible time, after their European knockout on the Thursday night.
Only Man City and Arsenal are above Eddie Howe’s side in this Premier League form table.
Which tells you everything, as they are also by some distance the best two teams overall this season, as shown below…
