Newcastle vs. Tottenham Predictions

Prediction, Odds & Betting tips for Newcastle vs. Tottenham Hotspur at EPL

Where: St. James’ Park, Newcastle, England
When: Sunday, April 23, 3 pm CET

A high-profile clash between the Magpies and the Spurs might have massive implications on the final standings and the race for the top four places. Tottenham is three points behind the hosts and has one game more played, which puts them in a significantly tougher spot. Newcastle would be satisfied with one point from Sunday’s event, but we are somehow sure that Eddie Howe isn’t thinking about that. With three points, his team would be safe and sound, entering the final phase of the campaign relaxed.

Newcastle vs. Tottenham Hotspur Preview

Newcastle

The Magpies suffered a heavy blow in Birmingham against Aston Villa, losing 3-0, and that has been their first defeat following five consecutive victories. We don’t quite know what happened with Howe’s crew, but they seemed rather sluggish and slow.

The Magpies post very good results at home after the restart of the activities, having just one loss in nine events at St. James’ Park, and six victories. The latest two events ended with wins over Wolves, 2-1, and Manchester United, 2-0.

A vast majority of Newcastle’s games this year have seen a moderate efficiency that is 2 or 3 goals. The latest five in front of their own crowd concluded in that range.

Tottenham Hotspur

Antonio Conte is out of the picture in Tottenham, and the speculations on his successor are overwhelming the media in England. Names such as Nagelsmann, Klinsmann, and similar are emerging every day.

The state of the locker room is unknown, but according to some of the insiders, for the moment, the morale is still at a high level, even though the results aren’t that good. This is the game of the season for the guests who have to win and stay in contention for the UEFA Champions League.

Tottenham is without a win in three of the previous four events, posting two draws and one victory, and losing at home to Bournemouth in the most recent event after a roller coaster and an allowed goal in the fifth minute of the stoppage time.

Newcastle vs. Tottenham Hotspur Head to Head

Newcastle was better than Tottenham in London in the season’s first game, beating them 1-2. It was the first win for the Magpies after five events in a row and 2019. By the way, the previous six meetings were all with both teams netting.

Newcastle vs. Tottenham Hotspur Predictions

Newcastle will lay back and wait for the guests to open up or simply try to lure their backline outside the box. Tottenham also needs to be careful, and the Spurs rely upon counterattacks as well. As you can see, the Magpies’ games aren’t that efficient, especially at home, so under 2.5 goals looks like a good pick.

Our verdict: Under 2.5 goals
