Tottenham vs Newcastle Prediction and Odds

Tottenham vs Newcastle Prediction and Odds: Preview

Newcastle has visibly struggled to churn out something big under the guidance of Steve Bruce. They are currently second from bottom and are fearing a drop to the second tier.

This will be their first match since PCP’s Capital Partners’ takeover of the club. The consortium is backed by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund and is poised to turn the club into one of the greatest clubs in English history.
The wealthy investors reportedly paid a whopping £300 million for a controlling stake at the club and ending Mike Ashley’s 14-year reign.

Manager Steve Bruce knows he might get the sack before the Spurs match and even admitted he will be fine with any action.

“I’m happy for the club that this has gone through. It’s a great night for the fans, I’m delighted for them. I want to continue [as manager] but I have to be realistic. I’m not stupid and aware what could happen with new owners.”

As of now, the management is not seeking a new manager and coach Graeme Jones could be handed the charge on a temporary basis.

Back to back defeats dealt a severe blow to Spurs’ ambitions but they are now back on track with their win over Aston Villa in the last match.

Despite the win, Nuno Espirito Santo is still the favourite to get the sack if reports are to be believed. The North Londoners have seen a mixed fortune as their opening three wins got marred by successive three defeats.

Harry Kane has fired blank so far and Nuno’s priority would be to provide the England captain with ample opportunity but their creative forces have let them down so far.

Nuno’s pragmatic approach too attracted severe criticism from the supporters and it remains to be seen whether he manages to turn the tide or not.

Tottenham vs Newcastle Prediction and Odds: Recent Form

Spurs lacklustre show against their London rivals could be a major concern for the manager. The North London giants have leaked nine goals in three matches and never looked comfortable in those three matches.

They had to rely on a Matt Targett own goal against Villa which provided them a much-needed victory just before the international break.

Nothing seems to be going in the Magpies’ favour as their tactics are not working. Their defeat against Wolves in the last match could be the last match in the Bruce regime as the new owners are determined to keep the club up and running in the top tier.

Tottenham vs Newcastle Prediction and Odds: Predicted Winner

After waiting for 18 months, Newcastle United now finally has a new owner. Mike Ashley’s 14-year reign at Newcastle United came to an end after Saudi’s sovereign wealth fund PIF, Amanda Staveley’s PCP and the Reuben brothers completed the much-delayed $410 million takeover of the club.

This Sunday Newcastle United will play their first match under new ownership. St. James’ Park may be more hostile with supporters behind their team more than usual. However, the recent form of Newcastle hasn’t been much convincing. In Sunday’s match, it will be Tottenham Hotspurs who will be starting as favorites.
