Newcastle United vs Tottenham Hotspur Preview

Newcastle United welcome Tottenham Hotspur to St. James’ Park on Tuesday evening in what promises to be an intriguing Premier League encounter. The Magpies head into this fixture in vastly superior form compared to their visitors, having secured a commanding 4-1 victory at Everton in their most recent outing. Prior to that result, Eddie Howe’s side experienced mixed fortunes with a 2-1 loss to Marseille in the Champions League, though they did win impressively before that – a 2-1 home win over Manchester City. Earlier in this sequence, they suffered a 3-1 defeat at Brentford before claiming a crucial 2-0 Champions League victory against Athletic Club.

Tottenham arrive on Tyneside in worrying form, having lost their last three matches across all competitions. Their most recent outing saw them fall 2-1 at home to Fulham, extending a dismal run that includes a 5-3 Champions League defeat to Paris Saint-Germain and a 4-1 loss to Arsenal. The only positive result in their last five came in early November when they secured a 4-0 Champions League win over F.C. København, sandwiched between that victory and their current struggles was a 2-2 draw at Manchester United.

The head-to-head record heavily favours Newcastle, who have dominated this fixture recently with three wins and two draws from the last five meetings. Most significantly, the Magpies claimed a 2-0 victory at home in the most recent encounter in October 2025, while the previous meeting at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium ended in a 1-1 draw in August. Newcastle also won 2-1 away in January 2025 and 2-1 at home in September 2024.
