Our Prediction Tip

Tottenham Hotspur will win this match.

Michael Keane’s own goal settled a scrappy game when they last met in July, as Tottenham claimed a much-needed 1-0 win. It means Spurs are unbeaten in their last 15 matches against Newcastle United, stretching back to 2012. Here are the results of the last five matches:

Jul 15, 2020: Newcastle United 1-3 Tottenham Hotspur
Aug 25, 2019: Tottenham Hotspur 0-1 Newcastle United
Feb 02, 2019: Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 Newcastle United
Aug 11, 2018: Newcastle United 1-2 Tottenham Hotspur
May 09, 2018: Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 Newcastle United

Tottenham Hotspur vs Newcastle United Betting Tips

Tottenham have bounced back from their opening-day defeat to Everton with three consecutive wins and with Gareth Bale and Sergio Regulion back at the club.
Neither is fit to start at the moment, but Spurs’ good form – and in particular that of Harry Kane and Son Heung-Min is cause for optimism again at Tottenham.

They are certainly favourites for this game against a wildly inconsistent Newcastle team, who put seven past Morecambe in mid-week, but got beaten 3-0 by Brighton last weekend.

They are depleted by injuries too and still look ropey at the back to say the least.

Spurs are back to their best on the other hand, with Kane and Son’s link up for all four of the South Korean’s goals last weekend is very encouraging.

Southampton were masters of their downfall with such a high defensive line, and Newcastle will surely heed the relevant warnings.

But Spurs put another three past Shkendija in mid-week and with the confidence flowing they are favourites to win this one.

Tottenham vs Newcastle Recommended bets with odds

Tottenham are odds-on favourites to start with a win against Newcastle, at 9/20 with Betway and Bet365.

With Newcastle inconsistent at best in front of goal, despite them hitting seven in mid-week you can get 17/20 with 888sport and Betway against both teams to score.

Tottenham are in fine form in front of goal and over 2.5 goals will return 13/18 with 10Bet.

Harry Kane is 5/6 with Bet365 to score at any time, while Son Heung-Min is a generous 6/4 with Bet365 despite having scored four in the last league game.

Tottenham Team News

Gareth Bale must wait to start his second spell at Spurs due to injury, while fellow new-boy Sergio Regulion is 50-50 due to an ankle sprain. Tanguy Ndombele will also be assessed after a first 90 minutes of the season in the win in mid-week.

Tottenham Key Players

Harry Kane – Scored in each of the last three matches, as well as assisting all four of Son Heung-Min’s goals in the victory away to Southampton.
Son Heung-Min – Clinical in front of goal, he followed up his four goals at the weekend with another in the win at Shkendija in mid-week.
Erik Lamela – Pushing for a start after opening the scoring in mid-week, after a useful substitute appearance at Southampton.

Tottenham Team Form

Spurs started the new season with a 1-0 defeat to Everton, but they have won three consecutive matches since. That includes their 5-2 win at Southampton in which Harry Kane set up Son Heung-Min for each of the first four goals and then scored the fifth himself. Last time out, Erik Lamela, Son Heung-Min and Harry Kane scored in a 3-1 win away to Shkendija.

Tottenham Hotspur Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line up: 4-2-3-1

Newcastle Team News

Fabian Schar, Martin Dubravka, Matthew Longstaff, Ciaran Clark, Paul Dummett and Dwight Gayle are all sidelined, while Jamal Lewis and Allan Saint-Maximin are doubtful due to injuries. 

Newcastle Key Players

Callum Wilson – After being key up front for Bournemouth, he could prove a key signing for Newcastle – especially if he continues his partnership with Ryan Fraser.
Ryan Fraser – The winger has a fresh start and, with former team-mate Callum Wilson up front, he knows how to get the best out of him.
Miguel Almiron – On as a second-half substitute last weekend and could start alongside Wilson this time out.

Newcastle Team Form

Newcastle United have been inconsistent so far this season. After beating West Ham in the league and Blackburn in the Carabao Cup, they lost to Brighton last weekend and thrashed Morecambe last time out. Even Joelinton scored twice as they put seven past the Shrimps, with Miguel Almiron, Jacob Murphy, Isaac Hayden and Jamal Lascelles also scoring before an own goal.

Newcastle United Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line up: 4-4-2

Both temas have made inconsistent starts to the 2020 Premier League season, but enjoyed wins in mid-week. For Spurs, it was a third consecutive victory - having won two Europa League qualifiers either side - and with Son Heung-Min and Harry Kane in fine form they can make it four in a row.
