Newcastle United perspective on Premier League fixtures to play out today (19 Sept 2026)

Looking at these Premier League fixtures on Saturday, in this latest round of matches.

Seeing the other games from a Newcastle United perspective.

This fifth round of Premier League fixtures kicked off in the best possible fashion with Brentford hammering Chelsea 3-0 on Friday night.

Now today Matthias Jaissle and his players face Hull City.

There are also four other Premier League fixtures to be played on Saturday, then the remaining four on Sunday.

As a Newcastle United fan, have a look at these Premier League fixtures on Saturday and have a think about what you’d like to happen and what is most likely in terms of results.

My conclusions and predictions on Saturday’s matches

Tottenham v Villa (12.30pm)

Two of the bottom four meet in this one.

Villa having had to sell many of their best players due to UEFA SCR pressures and not looking too clever so far. Emery’s team have scored only EPL goal in four matches and their only point coming from a poor goalless draw against Hull.

Tottenham able to have a ridiculously high net spend this summer but they haven’t scored a single Premier League goal and have fluked the two points they have from poor goalless draws against Forest and Everton.

I think Villa take out their frustrations here on a woeful Tottenham and an away win for me here.

Brighton v Arsenal (3pm)

Brighton have played seven matches in all competitions winning four, drawing two and losing one, scoring 20  and conceding seven.

Arsenal have won all of their six matches, scoring 13 and conceding only three.

This has the look of a great game and amazing it hasn’t been chosen by the broadcasters.

Brighton will look to get at the Gunners and force the visitors out of their usual negative set-up.

I fancy a draw with plenty of goals, maybe 2-2.

Everton v Ipswich (3pm)

From a game that should be on TV 100%, to one that you can perfectly understand the TV bosses ignoring.

Everton have battled their way to draws in their last three Premier League matches and I think another one here. Up against an Ipswich that have scored six goals in four league games and managed to beat Sunderland and Palace.

Newcastle v Hull (3pm)

The only match of course that really matters.

Hoping Matthias Jaissle can make it four wins, two draws and just the one defeat as we go into the international break.

Forest v Coventry (5.30pm)

Losing all four Premier League matches without scoring a single goal and conceding 10, Coventry already look doomed.

Forest in their last three EPL matches have drawn two and then won 2-1 at Villa.

I will be amazed if they don’t beat Coventry.
