Tottenham welcome a buoyant Newcastle side this weekend, and the stakes could not be higher for these top-four contenders. The Magpies, fresh off four straight Premier League victories, are eyeing a return to the Champions League, while Spurs hope to overcome a spate of defensive injuries to stay in the hunt.
Prediction 1: Newcastle to Win (Odds 2.20)
Newcastle’s recent form has been impressive, with comfortable wins over Leicester and Ipswich followed by a 3-0 demolition of Aston Villa and a 2-0 triumph at Old Trafford. Their airtight rearguard has kept four successive clean sheets. Meanwhile, Tottenham have managed just one clean sheet in their last 25 home league games. With confidence high among the Magpies, backing an away win at these odds looks tempting.
Back Newcastle to Win
Prediction 2: Over 2.5 Goals (Odds 1.85)
Despite Tottenham’s defensive woes—key injuries to Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, and now goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario—Ange Postecoglou’s men still boast plenty of attacking flair. Meanwhile, Newcastle have scored 12 goals in their recent four-match winning streak. When you combine Spurs’ offensive strengths with their fragile backline, a high-scoring affair seems likely.
Bet on Over 2.5 Goals
Prediction 3: Alexander Isak to Score Anytime (Odds 2.10)
Alexander Isak has been on fire, netting eight times in his last seven outings for the Magpies. From an odds perspective, 2.10 implies roughly a 48% probability he finds the net. Given his current scoring streak and the leaky Spurs defense, his chance of converting is arguably closer to 60%, making this a solid value pick.
Back Isak to Score Anytime
If you’re looking for even more value, correct-score bettors might fancy a 3-2 away result, considering Tottenham’s ability to notch a goal or two on home soil and Newcastle’s strong attacking prowess.
