Tottenham Hotspur vs Newcastle Predictions
Newcastle have repeatedly got the better of Tottenham
Newcastle are unbeaten in six meetings with Tottenham, winning five of them. They beat Spurs twice last season, once in the Premier League and once in the EFL Cup.
Tottenham are still waiting for their first league points after losing 3-0 at Brentford last weekend. Roberto De Zerbi did oversee a 5-1 EFL Cup win over Charlton, although he made five changes and the Addicks also rotated heavily.
Newcastle also came through their cup assignment, edging Championship side West Brom after new boss Matthias Jaissle made six changes. Their league performance against Liverpool was more significant, with the Magpies drawing 2-2 after leading for most of the game and conceding from the penalty spot deep into added time.
Newcastle spent long spells defending against Liverpool and rode their luck at times, but they were still good value for the point. Tottenham, meanwhile, won only one of their final eight home league matches last season and lost four, with De Zerbi still having issues to resolve despite heavy summer spending.
After five Newcastle wins in six meetings and only one Tottenham victory in their final eight home league games last season, I’m backing Newcastle to Win at 3.00.

Tottenham's home scoring record favours another 2-1 result
Newcastle won 2-1 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the corresponding league meeting last season. Their five victories in the last six meetings also provide a strong recent result record against Spurs.
Tottenham have failed to score in only one of their last 20 competitive home games. Newcastle, on the other hand, have gone 11 competitive matches without a clean sheet.
The Magpies also conceded in six of their seven pre-season friendlies. Their only shutout during that run came against Non League neighbours Darlington.
Newcastle scored twice in the 2-2 draw with Liverpool last weekend. Yoanne Wissa had four shots and recorded an assist in that game despite wasting two good chances, while his summer also included three goals for DR Congo at the World Cup.
Newcastle won 2-1 at this ground last season, and Newcastle 2-1 could be worth a look at 12.00.
