Newcastle are in contention for a Champions League spot and might take a big step up from that this Sunday when they take on Tottenham.
Currently fourth, three points clear of Tottenham (who have played one game more), the Magpies will look to get the better of Spurs in a crucial game at St James Park. Last week, Newcastle suffered a heavy defeat once morest Aston Villa (3-0) and will seek to redeem themselves with their supporters. Previously, Bruno Guimaraes’ partners had lined up five straight wins and are virtually unbeaten at home, with only Liverpool having achieved the feat. Eddie Howe has a quality squad with players such as Trippier, Schar, Botman, Guimaraes, Isak and Almiron.
Tottenham, meanwhile, have lacked consistency since the start of the season and suffered yet another disappointment last weekend once morest Bournemouth. Spurs tend to perform in spurts and crack during their weak moments. Facing a motivated Newcastle side and in front of their home crowd, Tottenham might struggle to get a result.
Newcastle : Pope; Trippier, Schar, Botman, Burn; Longstaff, Guimaraes, Anderson; Murphy, Isak, Saint Maximin
Tottenham : Crying; Davies, Lenglet, Rosemary; Perisic, Hojbberg, Skipp, Porro; Son, Kulusevski; Kane
