Newcastle United - Tottenham Hotspur predictions

The visiting team knows the task they face will not be easy. Beating Newcastle United on their own turf would be a major accomplishment, and it is always a formidable challenge.

2.40 on an away match is what many punters run away from but Tottenham Hotspur are a team capable of big things. Therefore, backing them in this match might not be a bad idea after all.

The home side will be eager to extend its winning streak this Saturday following a resounding away win recorded in the previous round. Not many people expected them to ease to victory but they proved them wrong by grabbing a first-time lead and increasing the advantage to a Fulham triumph.

It’s fair to say Tottenham Hotspur fans hoped for a more straightforward victory in the last round of the Premier League. But despite the slow start and tied first half, their team eventually did what they were expected to do – win comprehensively (3:1).

Newcastle gans are hoping for better defensive performance then what they’ve seen in away games. The previous three matches featured 7 conceded goals.

The visiting team are doing rather well offensively – at least as far as their latest 3 matches can tell us. They’ve scored more than 5 times in total over the course of these games.

The away team are seen as favourites despite their role as the visitors, and that makes a lot of sense considering the previous clash with Newcastle they had. Tottenham Hotspur pulled far ahead of their opponents and secured a decisive victory.

The hosts are in an unenviable position either way, but a large number of reported injuries makes it even worse. Jamaal Lascelles, Miguel Almirón, Sven Botman, Matt Targett, Joseph Willock, Valentino Livramento are all forced to sit this one out. The hurdles set in front of Newcastle are considerable.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 1.42, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
