Tottenham — Newcastle Prediction, H2H and Probable Lineups — 10 February 2026
On February 10, 2026, in Matchday 26 of the English Premier League, Tottenham will host Newcastle. The match is set to kick off at 20:30 Central European Time. Let’s take a closer look at the potential outcome of this clash.
Tottenham
Tottenham approach this match after a defeat in their last league outing, losing 2–0 away to Manchester United, which ended a four-match unbeaten run. Overall, Spurs’ recent form has been far from convincing: in their last ten matches across all competitions they have recorded just two wins, four draws and four defeats. In the Premier League, the situation looks particularly worrying, as Tottenham have gone seven consecutive matches without a victory and currently sit only 15th in the table, six points above the relegation zone.
Their home form has been even weaker, with Spurs ranking 17th in the league by this metric, having managed only two wins, four draws and six losses. The team also suffered an early exit from the FA Cup after losing to Aston Villa. However, Tottenham have shown a different face in the Champions League, where their two most recent victories came, beating Borussia Dortmund 2–0 and Eintracht Frankfurt, which allowed them to finish fourth in the overall standings and qualify directly for the round of 16.
It is also worth noting that Tottenham are dealing with serious squad issues ahead of this match, with around ten first-team players unavailable. As for home head-to-head meetings against Newcastle, the recent record is very balanced: in the last five matches in London, each side has won twice, with one draw. Notably, both teams scored in all five of those games, and four of them ended with over 2.5 goals.
Newcastle
Newcastle come into this match after a 3–2 home defeat to Brentford, a result that extended their poor run of form. The Magpies have now lost three consecutive matches in all competitions and are winless in five games overall, recording four defeats and one draw. During this stretch, they were also eliminated from the EFL Cup after losing the second leg to Manchester City.
In the Premier League, Newcastle are currently on a three-match losing streak and sit 12th in the table with 33 points, ten points away from the European places. Their away form has been a major issue this season, with just two wins, four draws and six defeats, placing them 16th in the league by this metric.
Their only recent victory came in the Champions League against PSV, and a draw away to PSG in the final group match saw Newcastle finish 12th overall and qualify for the play-offs, where they will face Qarabag. In the FA Cup, Newcastle remain in contention after beating Bournemouth on penalties and will face Aston Villa next.
The visitors also have notable squad issues, with Anthony Gordon, Joelinton and Livramento all set to miss this match. As for recent head-to-head meetings against Tottenham, Newcastle have had the upper hand, losing only once in their last eight official encounters, while winning five and drawing twice and most of those matches saw both teams score.

Tottenham — Newcastle Prediction
Both teams approach this match in far from ideal form in the Premier League. Tottenham have gone seven league games without a win and are uncomfortably close to the relegation zone, although their performances in the Champions League have been much more convincing, as they secured direct qualification to the Round of 16. Newcastle are also struggling domestically, having suffered three consecutive league defeats and sitting in mid-table, well away from the European places, but they too managed to reach the Champions League playoffs. Both sides are dealing with notable squad absences, which affects their defensive stability. Recent head-to-head meetings between these teams have consistently seen goals at both ends. Considering the motivation to end their negative runs, defensive issues on both sides, and the traditionally open and high-scoring nature of matches between Tottenham and Newcastle in London, there are strong reasons to expect a competitive game with goals from both teams. My bet for this match: Both Teams to Score — Yes at odds of 1.62.
