The Magpies to avoid defeat at St. James’ Park
Newcastle are unbeaten in their last five Premier League home games, recording two wins and three draws.
After the win over Nottingham Forest on Sunday, Tottenham moved into the top four of the Premier League log with just seven games to go. With a total of 60 points, the North London side seem likely to be back in Europe next season.
Newcastle had participated in the Champions League earlier this season. However, they were bundled out after a fine start and are currently on the verge of missing out if they do not stay consistent.
There might not be clear favourites in the head-to-head, but Newcastle have not lost at home in the league since January. Meanwhile, the Whites have won just one game on the road in 2024.
Taking everything into account, with the Magpies currently better at home, they can bring their A game. If they do so, they should avoid defeat and possibly take all three points in this Newcastle vs Tottenham predictions piece.
Bet 1: Newcastle to win or draw & over 1.5 @ 1.78 with Bet9ja
Goalfest on the cards
There have been 4+ goals in four of the last five meetings between the two sides.
It is well-known Tottenham and Newcastle are two of the teams in the top eight prone to conceding a lot of goals. In addition, head-to-head meetings between them are usually open and with a lot of goals.
There have been plenty of high-scoring meetings in the head-to-head, with Newcastle completing a league double over Spurs last season. This includes that 6-1 win at St. James’ Park, which saw the Magpies go 5-0 up inside 21 minutes.
Both teams have scored in each of the past eight meetings between them. In addition, over 2.5 goals have happened in the last six meetings. Newcastle have not kept a clean sheet in this match-up in eight games, while the Whites have not kept a shutout in nine games.
With the stats stated above, the tip is quite valuable and seems to be one of the bankers in this Newcastle vs Tottenham predictions piece.
Bet 2: GG & over 2.5 @ 1.46 with Bet9ja
A possible combined market outcome at Newcastle
There has been no draw between Newcastle and Tottenham since 2021.
Newcastle and Tottenham might have some of the poorest defences in the top half of the log. However, there has always been a winner in their meetings since 2021.
With the number of goals this fixture produces, here is a combo market that might play out at the end of the day. There have been 4+ goals in four of the last five meetings between the two sides.
As we approach the end of the season, the two teams are in desperate need of points and that should make this fixture a tight one. Hence, we have decided to combine the selection with one of the regular outcomes in this match-up.
With that in mind, our betting expert is tilting towards this combined market direction in this Newcastle vs Tottenham predictions piece.
Bet 3: Draw or Over 3.5 goals @ 1.54 BetKing
Isak to find the back of the net
Alexander Isak has scored in his last five Premier League home games.
He has been one of the leading lights for the Magpies in the Premier League this season. The Swedish striker has been key to their relative rise back to contention in recent weeks and could play a part in this season’s run-in.
Alexander Isak scored against Everton in his last game at St. James’ Park. This goal made him the first Newcastle player to score in five consecutive Premier League home games since Yoan Gouffran in December 2013.
Should he get another goal here, he can become the first Newcastle player to score 20+ goals across all competitions since Alan Shearer in 2002/03.
The 24-year-old found the back of the net twice when these two sides met at St.James’ Park last season. In total, he has scored 15 Premier League goals from 23 appearances this season.
Spurs are not usually at their best on the road and we are backing Isak to find the back of the net again in this Newcastle vs Tottenham predictions piece.
Bet 4: Alexander Isak to score anytime @ 2.20 with BetKing
