Tottenham vs Newcastle Prediction – Premier League Prediction & Betting Tips 04/01/2025
Tottenham vs Newcastle Premier League Prediction Match Details
The first Saturday of the new year in the Premier League kicks off in North London with Tottenham Hotspur playing host to Newcastle United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in an early kickoff game. Can Spurs end their three-match winless run on their home soil, or will the Magpies build on their race to the top four?
Tottenham Preview & Form
Tottenham’s struggles in the Premier League under the leadership of Ange Postecoglou as Spurs ended December with a three-match winless run in the league and have won just one of their last six games in the league. They began their current horrific run with a 6-3 defeat to Liverpool, a 1-0 loss to Nottingham, and then were held to a 1-1 stalemate in their last match of the Premier 2024 against relegation-battling Wolverhampton on their home soil. The Lilywhites currently sit 11th in the Premier League, 11 points away from the top four and just eight points away from the relegation zone.
Ange Postecoglou’s men have also failed to win their last five Premier League home games for the first time in a long time. The last home league game saw Spurs concede a late equalizer to draw 2-2 level with Wolverhampton, and Ange Postecoglou will now be hopeful of turning Tottenham’s fortunes around. On their home soil this season, Spurs have been in hot goal-scoring form, having scored in each of their last 13 home games across all competitions, and 11 of the games have ended in both teams scoring.
Newcastle Preview & Form
Newcastle United are currently on an incredible run of form, winning each of their last five matches across all competitions, and the positive run of results sees the Magpies break into the top five and also qualify for the semifinals of the Carabao Cup. The Magpies recorded their fourth win in a row in the league by beating Manchester United 2-0 at Old Trafford Stadium. Eddie Howe’s defense has looked to be in great shape, having kept clean sheets in each of their last four league games, with their attacking frontline boasting an incredible 13 goals. Alexander Isak has played a crucial role during their incredible form, scoring at least a goal in each of their last three games, including a hat trick against Ipswich Town on matchday 17. Eddie Howe’s men are now sitting fifth in the league standings with 32 points from 19 games, three points to move into the top four.
Eddie Howe’s side has also picked up incredible form in their away games, having won each of the last two matches. The most recent away match saw the Magpies come out with a top-class victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford. The Magpies frontline is also in excellent scoring form in their road games, having scored at least a goal in each of the last six games across all competitions.
