Newcastle vs Tottenham prediction, lineups, odds and bet builder tips for a blockbuster match on Tyneside.
13:30 Sunday
In what is expected to be a fiercely competitive match, Newcastle take on Tottenham at St James’ Park.
Newcastle vs Tottenham Prediction
Newcastle needed penalties to secure their spot in the third round of the EFL Cup in midweek. The Magpies have scored just once in all three competitive matches this season.
Tottenham smashed Everton 4-0 last time out and have had a full week to prepare for Sunday's trip to St. James' Park. However, Spurs have struggled recently at Newcastle, losing their last two trips here and conceding 10 goals in the process.
Spurs are unlikely to be quite so open this weekend but the spoils should be shared in what may prove to be an open game on Sunday afternoon.
