At a glance
Tottenham welcome Newcastle to north London on the back of a humiliating opening‑day 3‑0 defeat at Brentford – a result that left head coach Roberto De Zerbi branding his side “not a team”. Newcastle, under new boss Matthias Jaissle, began their campaign with a mid‑table performance but have shown attacking potency in pre‑season friendlies. According to MatchIntel data, both teams arrive with mixed form and defensive vulnerabilities, setting the stage for a potentially open encounter. The available data suggests a high‑scoring draw is the most likely outcome.
