Newcastle United begin their 2026-27 EFL Cup campaign by playing host to in-form West Brom in Round Two on Wednesday. The Magpies have scored and conceded in each of their five matches under new boss Matthias Jaissle and are unlikely to keep a clean sheet against a free-scoring West Brom. Our prediction backs both teams to find the net.
Away from their disappointing pre-season outing, Newcastle United made a strong start to the Premier League under new boss Matthias Jaissle at the weekend. The German tactician looked set to lead the team to all three points against Liverpool before Dominik Szoboszlai scored late from the spot to level the score at 2–2.
That result means the Magpies have now scored and conceded in four of their last five competitive matches, dating back to last season. Moreover, Matthias Jaissle has yet to get it right in defence, with the team conceding in all five matches under his watch since pre-season.
James Morrison has made an impressive start to life in the dugout since becoming West Brom’s permanent manager in April 2026. Under his watch, West Brom swept all four of their pre-season outings and thrashed Rotherham 4–1 in the opening round of the EFL Cup – their first competitive fixture of the season.
The Baggies come into this clash off the back of a 3–1 victory over newly relegated Burnley in the Championship at the weekend. They have now scored nine goals across their three competitive matches this season while conceding in each of them.

Our Newcastle vs West Brom Prediction
Newcastle United have been installed as favourites here given their home advantage and the gulf in quality between the two sides. However, James Morrison’s West Brom have shown they are no pushovers this season and will be out for a strong showing.
Although they have their defensive problems, the visitors have been impressive in attack and are likely to find the net against a Newcastle United side that has yet to keep a clean sheet under new manager Matthias Jaissle. Our Newcastle United vs West Brom prediction: BTTS.
