Newcastle take on the visitors Nottingham Forest in the round 1 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, August 6th at St. James' Park (Newcastle).
Last season Newcastle completed what seemed incredible. The Magpies were finally sold by Ashley last fall to the richest investors, the fund of the royal family of Saudi Arabia. But at the same time, the team on the field terribly failed and was main contender for the relegation. The change by the new owners of a mentor, from Steve Bruce to the young Eddie Howe, at first had no effect. But then, including due to the January newcomers, the legendary club changed. They not only survived, but also rose to 11th place. But the ambition in the Middle East is far greater, with Newcastle already spending over £60m on newcomers. At the same time, they bought wisely: Pope to the gate, Botman to the center of defense and Targett to the left. And there is still time for further strengthening.

Nottingham Forest are set play in the Premier League for the first time in the 21st century. The "Foresters" can already consider themselves a legend only due to the victory in 2 European Champions Cups in a row. But how difficult it was for them not even the next years - decades, up to relegation to League 1. But in the last draw, Steve Cooper, who came to the coaching post only in September, was able to raise his new wards to the 4th final place, and then won the playoffs with them. Obviously, even now all hopes are for the talents of the manager from Wales. Although the squad was seriously shaken up: they were left without Grabben (12 goals in the Championship), Jenkinson, Samba, Figueiredo, signed Henderson, Lingard, Hennessy for free, and also acquired Avoniyi, Neko Williams, Biancone, Niakate, O'Brien, Omar Richards, Toffolo and Aguilera.
In 2016 Newcastle, playing in the Championship, beat Nottingham Forest twice. But then Nottingham twice knocked off from them in the cup. Newcastle play at home against a newcomer to the Premier League. Without inventing anything, we bet on the Magpies.
Prediction for the match: Newcastle to win.
