These two sides could end up anywhere from 7th to 15th in the Premier League after tonight's match, depending on results from Bournemouth vs. Everton and Fulham vs. Man City.
Having stumbled out of the blocks, Newcastle finally appear to be picking up steam again. Their 4-1 dismantling of Everton at Hill Dickinson Stadium over the weekend was the clearest sign yet that Eddie Howe's men are inching back toward the European conversation.
Spurs, meanwhile, continued their slide down the table at the weekend against Fulham who raced into a two-goal cushion in North London, the opener courtesy of a costly Guglielmo Vicario slip.
Although Mohammed Kudus raised hope of a comeback with a brilliant second-half volley, it wasn't enough to prevent a 2-1 home defeat. That setback meant Tottenham have managed just one win in their last six Premier League outings.

Newcastle vs. Spurs prediction: Who will win today?
Newcastle finally broke their duck on the road in the league, and that long-awaited away victory means they now roll into this fixture riding a two-match winning streak, capped by that superb 2–1 scalp of Manchester City at St James' Park.
With 11 wins from 16 home league games in 2025, Eddie Howe has every reason to feel optimistic. Everything about the form, the venue, and the momentum suggests the Magpies are primed for another routine night on Tyneside.

Head-to-Head Record: Newcastle vs. Tottenham
- Tottenham's recent record against Newcastle makes for grim reading. Spurs have lost their last three Premier League encounters with the Magpies, something they haven't done since a six-match skid between 2006 and 2008.
- Newcastle have also taken five of the last six league meetings (L1), matching the total number of wins they managed in the previous 17 clashes. At St James' Park, the dominance is even clearer: Howe's men have swept Spurs aside in their last three home league showdowns by a combined scoreline of 12-2.
- The most recent matchup on Tyneside, back in September 2024, ended 2-1 to the hosts, with Harvey Barnes and Alexander Isak scoring either side of a Dan Burn own goal.

Newcastle United vs. Tottenham Score Prediction
St James' Park has long been a nightmare venue for Tottenham, and it wasn't that long ago that Newcastle cruised to a comfortable 2-0 victory over them in the EFL Cup on the very same turf.
A similar script could easily unfold again. Newcastle's formidable home form outweighs Spurs' decent away performances, especially with Tottenham still sputtering in the final third and prone to the sort of defensive lapses that the Magpies rarely let go unpunished.
Our Score Prediction: Newcastle 2-0 Tottenham (17/2 with Bet365)

This is how we think these two sides will lineup at St James' Park tonight with Cristian Romero quickly reinstalled to the Tottenham team by their under fire manager.
