Tottenham vs Newcastle: Predictions, Picks, Odds & Starting Lineups

Tottenham host Newcastle at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, August 29 (12:30 PM ET / 11:30 AM CT / 9:30 AM PT).

Tottenham go into this one without the injured Kulusevski, Odobert and Simons, with Kudus also sidelined by a thigh problem, while van de Ven, Porro and Sarr are doubts. Tel, Moore, Fernandes, Bentancur and Robertson remain the likely core of the group looking to put right the Brentford defeat. Newcastle will be missing the injured Joelinton and Burn, and the doubtful Livramento and Osula add further uncertainty in the final third, leaving Willock and Elanga among the front-line options most likely to feature.

This is a fixture between two teams still searching for their first win of the new season. Tottenham sit on 0 points with a -3 goal difference after that loss at Brentford, while Newcastle have 1 point and a 0 goal difference off the back of their draw with Liverpool. Home advantage should count for something here, but Newcastle showed in that 2-2 that they’re capable of scoring against anyone, and this one has the look of a game that won’t stay quiet at either end.
