Victory at Carrow Road means Newcastle have now picked up 43 points from their 34 games so far this campaign.
They’re now 14 points clear of Everton in 18th place and are looking up the table, rather than down.
However, at the bottom of the table, there is a real fight for survival taking place in what could be a very exciting end to the season.
They may have little to play for, however, with games against Liverpool, Manchester City, Arsenal and Burnley, Eddie Howe’s side still have a major part to play in storylines at both ends of the division.
Here, courtesy of FiveThirtyEight, we take a look at the latest supercomputer predictions and where Newcastle Unitedwill finish in the Premier League table when it comes to its conclusion on May 22.
17. Burnley
It looked a gamble to sack Sean Dyche, however, seven points from their three games since has been a remarkable return for the Clarets. Survival is a possibility, but by no means a certainty. Predicted points = 37 (-18 GD), chances of relegation = 27% Photo: Stu Forster

There was no shame in being beat 2-0 by Liverpool at the weekend, but games are beginning to run out for Frank Lampard’s side. Predicted points = 35 (-24 GD), chances of relegation = 55% Photo: PAUL ELLIS
