Spurs struggles continue

Tottenham started the season under Ange Postecoglou like a side ready to challenge for the league title. They opened with a fantastic unbeaten run and took a few impressive scalps along the way. Postecoglou arrived from Scottish treble winners Celtic in the summer and instantly set about improving the Londoners, albeit without star striker Harry Kane. During their strong start, the Aussie was keen to ensure his players kept their feet on the ground, and the media remembered all good teams must take the rough with the smooth, as no season goes without a hitch.

That experience helped Ange prepare for the inevitable dip in form, and it has arrived in the capital as Spurs’ form has spiraled out of control. They started this week in fifth, having previously led the title charge. Three defeats on the bounce, followed by a draw, left Tottenham six points off the pace set by current leader Arsenal, and things could get worse if the team isn’t able to arrest that slump anytime soon. The players must now show the character needed to bounce back from a woeful run that is threatening to derail their campaign, and they could soon be fighting for fourth rather than first.

Magpies flying high

Newcastle United sent shockwaves through European football last season when securing a top-four finish in the Premier League and a place in this year’s Champions League group stages. The board provided the backing to improve the playing staff, giving the manager a squad worthy of challenging for a place in the knockout stages of UEFA’s flagship tournament. Despite the campaign starting well, Newcastle fans haven’t had too much to cheer in Europe and may be happy to see the end of this ill-fated and rare visit to the Champions League.

The visitors arrive in London on the back of a strange recent run of form. They started the week in sixth place, with their stats for the campaign showing eight wins, two draws, and four defeats, scoring 32 goals and conceding 14. They are right in the mix for a top-four finish and enjoyed back-to-back wins over Manchester United and Chelsea, both at St James Park. Newcastle also fought out an entertaining and impressive two-goal draw with French Ligue 1 champions PSG in Paris. Confidence is high in the camp as a result.

Tottenham vs Newcastle prediction

Who will win at the impressive new-build known as the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium? Will Spurs make their home advantage count and collect all three points, or will Newcastle United continue their recent good form and take something from the capital? We can’t wait to find out. Tottenham enter low on confidence following a dreadful run, but there’s character in the team, and they’ll want to bounce back and show their best form, especially at home.

Newcastle arrive with nothing to lose and we expect much better from the Magpies in the coming months when their European adventure ends and they can concentrate on their domestic form. The visitors are an ambitious lot that plays without fear, and they’ll take confidence from how they’ve performed in recent weeks and the poor results of their opponents. The stats suggest viewers are in for a treat with goals a possibility.
