Tottenham vs Newcastle Prediction & Betting tips
Tottenham Hotspur host Newcastle United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, August 29, 2026, at 7:30 PM EEST. Both sides are eager to secure their first Premier League victory of the season after contrasting, yet frustrating, opening-weekend results. This fixture has historically guaranteed entertainment, famously holding the record as the most played matchup in Premier League history to never finish goalless across 62 meetings. Newcastle has had the upper hand recently, winning four of the last five encounters.
Tottenham:
Roberto De Zerbi’s side suffered a heavy 3-0 opening defeat to Brentford. However, they stabilized things mid-week by thrashing Charlton Athletic 5-1 in the EFL Cup. A massive talking point centers around midfielder Sandro Tonali, who is set to start against his former club. New signings like Savio and Omar Marmoush are also available for full debuts to bolster the attack. The London side remains heavily depleted in the forward line. Xavi Simons, Dejan Kulusevski, and Wilson Odobert are out with serious knee injuries. James Maddison is also highly unlikely to feature due to a shoulder injury. On the bright side, full-backs Pedro Porro, Micky van de Ven, and Destiny Udogie all returned to match fitness mid-week and are available.
Tottenham (4-3-3): Kinsky – Porro, Van Hecke, Van de Ven, Robertson – Fernandes, Tonali, Gallagher – Savio, Richarlison, Tel.
Newcastle:
Matthias Jaissle almost engineered a perfect start against Liverpool, but an injury-time penalty restricted the Magpies to a 2-2 draw. Having also secured mid-week cup success by beating West Brom 3-2, Newcastle will try to rely on their recent record in North London, having won on their last two visits to this stadium. They could also hand a debut to new signing Nico Gonzalez. Captain Dan Burn (ankle) is sidelined, alongside Joelinton (groin) and young forward William Osula (foot). Tino Livramento remains a major doubt.
Newcastle (4-2-3-1): Hornicek – Dedic, Thiaw, Botman, Hall – Gonzalez, Miley – Elanga, Wissa, Barnes – Woltemade.
