Newcastle vs Tottenham Prediction: The hosts have only had one defeat in the last six rounds

On 23 April 2023, Newcastle will face Tottenham in the 32nd round of the FA Championship at St James' Park. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Newcastle has a very strong championship run. Unsurprisingly, the club changed owners during last season and started spending money on big transfers. Back then, that helped them retain their place in the Premier League, and now they are facing much more global challenges, aiming to qualify for the Champions League, where the Magpies haven't played in almost two decades. The Black and Whites were particularly strong between March and April, posting a five-match winning streak, but they lost 0:3 to Aston Villa in the last round. Nevertheless, they remain in fourth place in the standings.

Tottenham is having another modest season, being more of a mid-table Premier League side than a championship contender. Once again, the Londoners have failed to step up to the trophy challenge, and Antonio Conte's recent remarks have led to his early firing. Christian Stellini is now in charge, but there has been a slight improvement in Bianconeri's performance. Over the last three games, the Moscow side claimed only one win - 2:1 against Brighton, a 1:1 draw against Everton, and a 2:3 defeat for Bournemouth, relegating them to fifth place.

Newcastle and Tottenham sit next to each other in the EPL table, but the Magpies are the better side now. They have only scored one brace in the last six fixtures and won on five occasions, while the Londoners have only won twice over a similar distance. Furthermore, the Black and Whites won their first encounter of the season 2:1, with that clash taking place in the capital and now at St James' Park. As a result, a bet on Newcastle's victory is in order.

We have every reason to expect high performance from the upcoming encounter. The recent head-to-head meetings between Newcastle and Tottenham are always goal-rich. In their previous six games, they have scored 24 goals against each other (4.00 goals per game on average). Furthermore, the Londoners have entirely forgotten about defense and are playing open football, so they scored 20 goals (4.00 on average per game) in their previous five encounters. Therefore, total over 3.5 goals might be a good bet, and you might want to keep an eye on Kieran Trippier's goal.
