50 Cent is now betting on the Premier League and his first selection came good

Get rich or die tryin'

Newcastle hadn’t won away from home in 10 months but 50 Cent’s gut instinct is not to be questioned.

The rapper is currently touring the UK and put a bet on Steve McClaren’s side to beat Bournemouth in Saturday’s early kick-off which returned odds of 5/2.

Fiddy, as he likes us to call him because we’re boyz, predicted the underdog victory despite the Magpies having failed to win away from St. James Park since January.

Was it beginner’s luck or is it worth plumping on the predictive powers of the G-Unit founder and backing an Arsenal win on Sunday?

The Gunners are 8/11 favourites to beat Spurs on Sunday so won’t return the value of Newcastle but, hey, who are we to doubt Fiddy?
