Newcastle in search of three-game unbeaten run as Spurs clash looms.
In a clash steeped in history and fierce battles, Newcastle United aim to extend their unbeaten Premier League run against a confident Tottenham Hotspur, who arrive at St. James' Park buoyed by their emphatic win over Everton, yet tempered by past struggles on Tyneside.
Newcastle United
Newcastle advanced past Nottingham Forest in Wednesday’s EFL Cup clash, triumphing 4-3 on penalties after a 1-1 draw. The Magpies are set to face AFC Wimbledon on September 17 in the third round of the EFL Cup.
In the Premier League, they currently occupy 6th place, being one of four teams with four points. Their recent 1-1 draw against Bournemouth extended their unbeaten run to two games, providing an opportunity to stretch it to three in their upcoming fixture.
Newcastle enjoys a goal-scoring streak spanning 20 games, which augurs well for their upcoming match—a fixture that has never ended scoreless in 58 meetings. They also boast a strong record against Tottenham, winning three of their last four Premier League encounters.
In attack, Eddie Howe might field Isak, Anthony Gordon, who netted against Bournemouth, and Jacob Murphy in a 4-3-3 formation. Sandro Tonali, who played an hour midweek, is expected to contribute again against Spurs.
However, Fabian Schär is suspended, and both Callum Wilson and Sven Botman are currently sidelined due to injuries.
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham Hotspur impressed in their last Premier League match, securing a 4-0 victory over Everton, with Son Heung-min scoring twice [25’, 77’]. This dominant win positioned Spurs in 5th place with four points, matching Sunday's opponents.
Their main goal this weekend is to achieve consecutive victories. However, Tottenham faces a daunting task as they've lost their last two away games against Newcastle by a combined 10-1 scoreline.
Spurs' overall away form has been patchy, with only three wins in their last 14 away league matches [3W, 5D, 6L]. They are expected to line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, featuring Son Heung-min in attack again.
Newcomer Dominic Solanke, along with Richarlison and Rodrigo Bentancur, will be unavailable until after the international break.
