Newcastle United played out a 0-0 draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers in a Premier League matchday 22 fixture. This result snapped the Magpies' three-game winning streak in the league, while the Wolves extended their positive run, remaining undefeated in four consecutive matches. The two teams delivered an engaging contest under the pouring rain at Molineux, yet neither managed to find the back of the net. The visitors held the upper hand for most of the game but ultimately had to settle for a single point. Newcastle started stronger, with Nick Voltemade heading over the bar after fifteen minutes. The first shot on target came just before the half-hour mark when Matheus Cunha, from the opposite end of the pitch, unleashed an effort that posed no real threat to Nick Pope. Towards the end of the first half, Hugo Bueno came agonizingly close to putting the hosts ahead but failed to hit the target from close range.
After the break, Eddie Howe introduced Luis Miley, Anthony Elanga, and Yoane Wissa in an attempt to inject more energy and variety into the attack. One of the Magpies' best chances came about ten minutes before the final whistle when Kieran Trippier struck a dangerous free-kick, but the ball sailed just wide of the net. In the closing minutes, Newcastle intensified their attacks, but several crucial saves from Jose Sa denied them a goal, ensuring the stalemate held until the final whistle. This was another unconvincing performance away from home for Eddie Howe's side, who have managed only two wins in 11 away games this season. With the point from today's match, they leapfrogged local rivals Sunderland into eighth position. Wolverhampton Wanderers, meanwhile, remain at the bottom of the table, six points adrift of second-to-last Burnley.
