Head-to-Head Battle: A Tale of Two Teams
The history between Tottenham and Newcastle adds an extra layer of intrigue to this encounter. The last five games have seen a closely contested rivalry, with Tottenham securing two victories, Newcastle claiming two wins, and a solitary draw. The memory of their last meeting, a stunning 6-1 victory for Newcastle on April 23, 2023, looms large, promising a fiery rematch.
Current Form and Lineups: Striking a Balance
Both teams enter the fixture with mixed recent performances. Tottenham, currently grappling with a string of defeats (LLLDL), aims to reverse their fortunes. The predicted lineup (4-2-3-1) showcases a blend of experience and flair, with the likes of Kulusevski, Son, and Richarlison leading the attacking charge.
Newcastle, boasting a more favorable form (LWDWL), is eager to capitalize on Tottenham's vulnerabilities. Their predicted lineup (4-3-3) features a dynamic trio in Joelinton, Isak, and Gordon, aiming to exploit any defensive lapses.
Absentee Woes: Key Players Missing
Both squads face significant setbacks with key players ruled out.

The void left by these players creates an opportunity for rising talents to step up and make their mark.
