We are waiting for goals from the teams! Newcastle vs Tottenham Prediction
One of the matches in the third round of the Premier League will be played on Sunday at St. James' Park, where Newcastle will host Tottenham. Here’s the prediction for this match from the Dailysports expert team.
Newcastle
Newcastle is level with Tottenham, occupying the sixth position with the same number of points. In the first round, the Magpies secured a 1-0 victory over Southampton, despite being down to ten men after a red card in the 28th minute. Joelinton scored the only goal, and the opponent couldn't respond.
In the second round, Newcastle once again managed just a single goal, but Bournemouth equalized and almost snatched victory, if not for a VAR-disallowed goal in added time. The week concluded with another tense match in the League Cup against Nottingham Forest, where Newcastle had to settle the game in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw in regular time. Eddie Howe's team ultimately secured the win, 2-1.
Tottenham
Tottenham started the season with a disappointing draw against Leicester, who had just returned from the Championship. Ange Postecoglou's side dominated the first half, with Pedro Porro scoring, but Leicester equalized in the second half, resulting in a 1-1 draw.
In the next round, the Spurs claimed a more convincing victory over Everton, thrashing the Toffees 4-0, thanks in part to a brace from Son Heung-min. Although the scoreline didn't fully reflect the game, Tottenham's confidence and control were evident. The club currently sits in fifth place with four points.
