The Matchday 14 Premier League clash between Newcastle and Tottenham will take place on December 2 at St. James' Park. Newcastle vs. Tottenham: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Newcastle
Eddie Howe's side has performed excellently in their last two league matches, securing victories. First, they defeated Manchester City at home (2-1), and then they thrashed Everton away (4-1). Interestingly, before the match against the Merseysiders, the team had not won away in nine league games. It's also worth noting that in the last six Premier League games involving Newcastle, at least three goals were scored. The club has accumulated 18 points and climbed closer to the middle of the standings.
- Both teams scored in Newcastle's last 6 Premier League matches.
- Newcastle opened the scoring in their last five league matches.
- The team has won 10 of their last 13 Premier League games (3 losses).
Predicted lineup for Newcastle (4-3-3)
Aaron Ramsdale – Valentino Livramento, Malick Thiaw, Lewis Hall, Dan Burn – Bruno Guimaraes, Lewis Miley, Joelinton – Anthony Elanga, Harvey Barnes, Nick Woltemade.
Due to injuries, forwards Yoane Wissa and William Osula, as well as defenders Kieran Trippier and Emil Krafth, will miss the match.
Tottenham
The Londoners have not tasted victory in the league for four matches, collecting just one point. They approach the upcoming match after two consecutive losses: away to Arsenal (1-4) and at home to Fulham (1-2). These results have impacted Thomas Frank's side's position in the standings, dropping them to the lower half. Additionally, in 5 of their last 6 Premier League games, at least three goals were scored.
- Both teams scored in 7 of Tottenham's last 9 league matches.
- The club has failed to win in 15 of their last 20 Premier League games (4 draws and 11 losses).
- The Londoners have suffered just 1 loss in their last 6 Premier League matches (4 wins and 1 draw).
Predicted lineup for Tottenham (5-3-2)
Guglielmo Vicario – Kevin Danso, Archie Gray, Micky van de Ven, Destiny Udogie, Pedro Porro – Joao Palhinha, Lucas Bergvall, Mohammed Kudus – Richarlison, Randal Kolo Muani.
Due to injuries, midfielders Yves Bissouma, James Maddison, and Dejan Kulusevski, as well as forward Dominic Solanke, are out. Defender Radu Dragusin's participation is doubtful.

Newcastle vs. Tottenham: Match Prediction
Encounters between these opponents are usually very entertaining and high-scoring. In the last nine league meetings, at least three goals were scored. Moreover, both teams found the net in 10 of the last 11 head-to-head Premier League clashes. Therefore, I expect both teams to score at least three goals this time as well.
Newcastle is dangerous at their home ground, not only in the Premier League. The team often wins due to their high scoring ability. In the last 13 home league games, the club scored at least two goals 10 times. Moreover, three or more goals were scored in 15 of Newcastle's last 19 home Premier League matches. The Londoners also contribute to the goal tally, scoring two or more in 5 of their last 6 away Premier League matches. At least three goals were scored in Tottenham's last 5 away league games.
My prediction – Total over 2.5 goals
Aaron Ramsdale
