Anorak: French imports give Magpies the edge
Stoke come calling tomorrow and, for the first time since Tony Pulis got the Potters promoted, there is discontent. I think the bookies have priced up Newcastle at slight odds-against because of Thursday night’s trip to Russia in the Europa League, but with several players rested up, Alan Pardew’s side look this week’s best value bet (11-10 general).
Bournemouth can halt a poor run by accounting for Doncaster (6-5 Coral), Zola’s talented Watford can beat struggling Blackpool (4-5 Hills), while QPR are fancied to make it two wins on the bounce by beating Sunderland (6-4 Bet 365), while you could also back French striker Loic Remy to score.
