Eddie Howe’s side fought back from a goal down after Philip Billing struck the opener with Alexander Isak striking the equaliser from the spot, following VAR’s intevention to penalise Jefferson Lerma for handling Kieran Trippier’s cross. Since a 9-0 humbling to Liverpool, the Cherries are unbeaten in three under caretaker boss Gary O’Neil. The Magpies could have taken the lead in the first half after Trippier and Joelinton both hit the woodwork, but Jordan Zemura’s cross saw Billing poke home the opener to silence St James’ Park. Eddie Howe is now under pressure, though his side did show character to battle back for a point, with a trip to Fulham awaiting them after the international break.

Since appointing Gary O'Neil as caretaker manager, the Cherries have taken four points from two matches; emerging 3-2 winners against Nottingham Forest last time out. However, the South Coast side have conceded at least two goals in each of their away games this season - including versus Norwich City in the EFL Cup.

Following a two-week hiatus, with no competitive action taking place, Newcastle aim to end their five-match winless run in the Premier League today. Without a top-flight victory since overcoming Nottingham Forest on the opening weekend, the Magpies have played out four draws from their last five league games, including a controversial goalless game against Crystal Palace last time out. Occupying 11th place in the table, they have lost just one Premier League home fixture throughout 2022 to date.
