Data provided by

Tottenham vs Newcastle is a Premier League Gameweek 2 clash at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday at 5.30pm, with the hosts seeking a response after a chastening opening day.

Spurs were thumped at Brentford while Newcastle earned a creditable draw with Liverpool, and this looks a closely-matched contest. Andy Francis has the best bets, a score prediction and the head-to-head record below.

Premium Tips

Andy expects a tight game, with Newcastle’s solid start making them dangerous visitors.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Newcastle or draw (Double Chance) and Sandro Tonali to be booked6/1Newcastle head south with real belief after matching Liverpool for long spells in an impressive 2-2 opening draw, while Spurs arrive low on confidence following a heavy defeat at Brentford. A well-organised, physically imposing Newcastle side looks capable of taking something from a shaky Tottenham team, supporting the double chance. Tonali, now a Spurs player after his club-record move from Newcastle, faces his former side for the first time and picked up several cautions last season as a combative, ball-winning midfielder. The emotion of facing his old club in a keenly contested fixture adds extra weight to the booking price.
Conor Gallagher over 1.5 fouls, Savinho and Yoane Wissa over 0.5 shots on target4/1Gallagher’s high-press, combative style has consistently produced a heavy fouling rate, and a needle-y contest against a physical Newcastle side is exactly the environment where he tends to rack up infringements. Savinho, another marquee summer arrival at Spurs, has already shown his eye for goal in his opening cup outing and looks a regular threat on target from wide areas. Wissa, meanwhile, was involved in Newcastle’s goal in their draw with Liverpool and continues to test opposition goalkeepers regularly. Both attackers look well placed to register at least one shot on target apiece.

How Tottenham Hotspur go into the game

Tottenham endured a miserable opening day, well beaten 3-0 at Brentford. The pressure is already on to respond in front of their own supporters, who will demand a far sharper display.

Spurs have the individual quality to hurt anyone at home, but the manner of that Brentford defeat raised questions. A reaction is essential against in-form opponents.

How Newcastle United go into the game

Newcastle began with an impressive 2-2 draw against Liverpool, matching the Reds for long spells. Eddie Howe’s side travel to London with real belief after that performance.

Well-drilled and physically imposing, Newcastle carry a genuine threat on the road. They will fancy their chances of taking something from a Spurs side low on confidence.
