Tottenham vs. Newcastle Pick
Newcastle Pick: Newcastle to Win
Newcastle’s recent home form has been exceptional. Eddie Howe’s team has tuned things around after a poor start to the season, and St. James’ Park has been a decisive factor. The Magpies face a side that is low on confidence here, so we are tipping a home win as part of our Newcastle vs Tottenham predictions.
Howe’s team has won its last six matches on home turf across all competitions, scoring an average of 2.17 goals per game, and conceding just 0.33. The loss of Alexander Isak in the summer initially hurt Newcastle’s attacking output, but the new-look forward line appears to have found its feet.
Newcastle were excellent in a 4-1 win over Everton at the weekend. The last home game was even more impressive, as Howe’s team beat Manchester City 2-1.
Another success in front of its own supporters would likely mean Newcastle moves to within touching distance of the Champions League places.
Tottenham, on the other hand, was beaten 2-1 at home by Fulham at the weekend. The defeat means that Spurs has now lost five of its last seven matches across all competitions, with the only victory coming against FC Copenhagen.
Spurs have also struggled in recent games against Newcastle, losing six of the last seven head-to-heads. Tottenham has also lost the last four at St. James’ Park, the most recent of which was a 2-0 League Cup defeat at the end of October.

Tottenham vs. Newcastle Betting Analysis
The Newcastle vs Tottenham odds have installed the home team as odds-on favorites. The Magpies’ win price on the 1x2 market implies a 58% of victory when Spurs travel to St. James’ Park.
Spurs, arriving following three consecutive defeats in all competitions, have been handed a 21% of victory, according to the odds compilers.
Newcastle receives a -0.75 Asian handicap. The -0.75 Asian handicap will yield profits for pro-Newcastle bettors if the hosts win the game by any scoreline.
However, the -0.75 Asian handicap only pays out half profits if Newcastle wins the game by a one-goal margin. Yet, if the home team can stretch its lead to a two-goal margin victory or greater, then the -0.75 Asian handicap will pay out in full.
The Asian goal line in the Newcastle vs Tottenham odds is set at over/under 2.75 goals. Any bettors who like to consider head-to-head data might be interested in this particular goal line.
Each of the most recent nine Premier League meetings between Newcastle and Tottenham has gone over the 2.5-goal mark. The two teams scored 40 goals during the current nine-game streak, averaging 4.44 goals per 90 minutes.
Eight Newcastle players have been priced shorter to score in the anytime goalscorer market than Tottenham’s most favored, Randal Kolo-Muani. Nick Woltemade is the favorite of all players in the goalscorer market, although his five goals in ten matches aren’t yet enough for the German striker to be priced at odds-on in this market.
