Premier League experts predict final table after Newcastle United's win at Crystal Palace

Newcastle United returned to winning ways in the Premier League with a 2-0 win away to Crystal Palace on Sunday afternoon.

The Magpies headed to Selhurst Park on the back of successive losses to Coventry City and Aston Villa, which had raised concerned over Matthias Jaissle’s tactical approach.

Jaissle has only been in the job three months but in the past week has been forced to defend his tactics. The German then put his words into action by guiding his side to a rather comfortable win at Selhurst Park.

The match sparked into life early in the second half when Will Osula prodded home Jacob Murphy’s cross to put Newcastle 1-0. Joe Willock then had a goal chalked off for offside before Harvey Barnes increased the advantage near the hour-mark.

The win saw Jaissle’s side climb for 14th to the 8th ahead of their next Premier League fixture at home to Everton on Monday night.

We’re still just eight games into the 2026-27 campaign, but Premier League data experts Opta have already predicted how the final table will end up:
