Tottenham Hotspur vs Newcastle United prediction and odds ahead of Premier League clash

Tottenham will be looking to return to some sort of positive form while Newcastle United look to do the same with both managers having their futures in doubt

Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United both risk suffering their 11th Premier League defeat of the season as they meet in a bottom-half showdown on Tuesday night. Tottenham’s recent four-match unbeaten run was halted by a 2-0 loss at Manchester United on Saturday, while Newcastle endured a disappointing 3-2 home defeat to Brentford later that day.

Tottenham’s 2025-26 domestic campaign under Thomas Frank has been plagued by misfortune, setbacks, and a mounting injury list. Their visit to Old Trafford encapsulated their season’s woes: Cristian Romero received a record-equalling red card—adding to his turbulent spell at the club—while goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Bruno Fernandes handed Spurs their 10th league defeat. The situation worsened when Destiny Udogie was forced off with an injury.

While Spurs have found some respite in the Champions League, with the round of 16 still on the horizon, their immediate priority is to distance themselves from the relegation battle. The reigning Europa League champions are now just six points clear of 18th-placed West Ham United, having failed to win any of their last seven Premier League games and managing only one victory in their previous 11 home league fixtures. Saturday’s defeat also marked the fifth straight league match in which Tottenham have conceded at least two goals—a worrying trend as their defensive injury woes deepen.

Both managers are under growing scrutiny, with Thomas Frank and Newcastle’s Eddie Howe facing increasing pressure. Howe described Newcastle’s recent 3-2 loss to Brentford as a “harsh reality,” marking the Magpies’ third consecutive defeat in all competitions following losses to Liverpool and Manchester City. It was also their third straight Premier League defeat and extended their winless run to five matches since beating PSV Eindhoven.

Newcastle’s struggles have left them in the lower half of the table, though they remain closer in points to the top six than to the relegation zone. Howe has acknowledged that the team has failed to meet expectations during this challenging spell. Their away form has been particularly concerning, with the Magpies scoring more than once in just two away league fixtures this season—against Everton and Burnley.

Despite these difficulties, Newcastle have enjoyed recent success against Tottenham, winning five of their last seven Premier League meetings with the Lilywhites. However, their most recent encounter ended in a 2-2 draw, with the now-suspended Cristian Romero netting both goals for Spurs.
