On the back of an impressive home victory over Everton, Tottenham Hotspurs travel to Newcastle United for their next Premier League fixture. The fixture will occur at St James’ Park on Sunday, 1st September. The Magpies will be entering the third league game after a victory over Nottingham Forest in EFL Cup. Let’s discover some of the winning picks for this game.
Newcastle United to win 2.55 (31/20)
Newcastle United have registered victories in three of the recent four H2H meetings against Tottenham Hotspurs in Premier League. The Magpies are also undefeated in the last nine league fixtures at St James’ Park, winning five of them. On the other hand, Tottenham have been struggling in the away fixtures, recording four defeats and only one victory in the last seven visits. Furthermore, Spurs were also clipped to only a 1-1 away draw against Leicester City in the opening game of the season. Therefore, a victory for Newcastle United will be our first pick for this game.
Over 2.5 Goals 1.38 (8/21)
Newcastle United have not been extraordinary on the scoring end, notching only three goals in the last three matches. However, the Magpies have rattled the net 15 times in the previous five meetings with Tottenham Hotspurs at St James’ Park. On the other side, the Lilywhites have scored an average of two goals per game in the previous five league outings. Adding more, all of the previous five meetings between these teams at St James’ Park have ended with Over 2.5 Goals. Given the current situation, we predict the same outcome to be featured in this game.
Both teams to score: Yes 1.36 (9/25)
Newcastle United have found the back of the net in all of the recent five Premier League fixtures with Tottenham while keeping only one clean sheet. The Magpies have also scored all three games of August in Premier League and EFL Cup. Meanwhile, Spurs have managed to notch goals in four of the recent five league matches while conceding goals in four games as well. With these stats, a BTTS outcome will be our next prediction for this fixture.
