Newcastle United vs Brentford: prediction & betting odds 2 Apr 2025
Betting tips 2 Apr 2025
Newcastle United’s Carabao Cup triumph has already secured them a place in next season’s Europa Conference League — but they are clearly eyeing a bigger prize: Champions League qualification. A trophy is always welcome, but Europe’s top table is what really matters.
To get there, every point counts — and home fixtures are non-negotiable. St James’ Park remains a fortress, and the mood in the city is electric after the cup win. The celebrations saw an estimated 300,000 supporters take to the streets, essentially the entire population of Newcastle-upon-Tyne. That feel-good factor will surely carry into the dressing room. Newcastle United have won 7 of their last 10 home games, with the likes of Liverpool and Nottingham Forest unable to get the better of them.
One of those victories came against Brentford — a 3:1 win in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals back in December. The team managed a late consolation goal through Yoane Wissa in stoppage time, but Newcastle were in control throughout. Brentford haven’t climbed much since, still hovering around mid-table without making a serious push.
Brentford do arrive on a five-game winning run away from home, but context matters: their best scalp during that stretch was Bournemouth, who sit 10th. The rest of the wins came against bottom-half sides. Newcastle are riding high on momentum, buoyed by silverware and a homecoming celebration. With the crowd behind them and Europe in sight, expect them to win.
