Where Newcastle United sit in the predicted Premier League table compared to Aston Villa, West Ham & others

Newcastle United have enjoyed a solid start to the new Premier League season, claiming six points and narrowly missing out on a shock defeat over Manchester City.

Last year’s takeover and some impressive signings since have led to many expecting the Magpies to finish in the top half this season - with many even considering them for a European spot.

However, there is still another nine months to go until the end of the 2022/23 campaign and plenty could happen on Tyenside between now and then.
