Newcastle and Tottenham Hotspur who are both falling short of expectations this season will face off later tonight for the round 14 fixture of the English Premier League. Both teams will make this an important contest as they each try to compensate for their performance so far in the league.
Newcastle became the second visitors to win at the Hill Dickinson Stadium last weekend when they thrashed Everton 4-1. They will hope for a win today, as they begin to claw their way back up from a poor start to the season. Their six-game winning streak at St. James’ Park, five of which saw them net exactly twice, will be a major motivation for them going into this fixture.

Tottenham will be hopeful for a successful outing today after suffering a 2-1 defeat from Fulham last weekend. Spurs are now putting a log of pressure on boss, Thomas Frank for solutions after losing five of their last seven games across all competitions – 1 win and 1 draw. Their downtrend start from their last visit to St. James’ Part for the Carabao Cup game in October. Spurs has since, made their longest unbeaten Premier League run outside London since October 2022.
