Newcastle vs Bradford prediction, odds & betting tips 24/09/2025

Newcastle will take on Bradford in the EFL Cup on Wednesday, 24 September, with the hosts looking to kick-start their season after a ropey start.

    Bradford will sense that there is an opening for an upset here, but it is a huge ask.

    Most recent H2Hs: A first meeting in 24 years

    This will be the first time that Newcastle and Bradford have played against each other since 2001, when the Bantams were a Premier League outfit in their own right. The most recent clash between the two clubs finished 2-2.

    Yoane Wissa is yet to make his Newcastle debut due to a knee problem, and it's unlikely that he will be ready for this one as he is yet to return to training. Fellow summer recruit, Jacob Ramsey, is also unavailable for this one. Nick Woltemade should get the start up front, with Howe keen for the German to build on the goal he scored on debut against Wolves. Aaron Ramsdale should get the nod in goal.

    Predicted lineup: Ramsdale (GK), Krafth, Lascelles, Thiaw, Trippier, Willock, Guimaraes, Joelinton, Barnes, Woltemade, Osula

    Bradford preview: Leigh is a doubt

    Tommy Leigh could miss out on this match after the midfielder was forced off early at the weekend. Leigh aside, Bradford are expected to field their strongest possible XI as they look to pull off an almighty cup scalp.

    Predicted lineup: Turner (GK), Ng, Lawlor, Chambers, Bagan, Mafico, Colwill, Nyakuhwa, Robinson, Davies, Salech

    After signing for Newcastle in the summer, Aaron Ramsdale has had to settle for a place on the bench for the Magpies so far, but the former Arsenal keeper will be given a chance between the sticks this week. If Ramsdale can perform well and put pressure on Nick Pope, then he could slowly become the club's first-choice goalkeeper over the course of the season.
