Newcastle United are 2-5 against Tottenham Hotspur since August of 2018 but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Sunday. Newcastle United will hit the road for the third straight game at 9:00 a.m. ET on April 23rd at St. James' Park. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this contest.

Newcastle United only put two shots on goal on Saturday, both unsuccessful. Their bruising 3-0 defeat to Aston Villa might stick with them for a while.

Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur might have drawn first blood against Bournemouth on Saturday, but it was Bournemouth who got the last laugh. Tottenham Hotspur fell just short of Bournemouth by a score of 3-2. If the result catches you off guard, it should: Tottenham Hotspur were far and away the favorite.

Even though they lost, Tottenham Hotspur put plenty of pressure on the goal with eight goal attempts. This was only their second loss (out of 11 games) when they work the goalie so hard.

Newcastle United skirted past Tottenham Hotspur in their previous matchup last October 2-1. Will Newcastle United repeat their success, or do Tottenham Hotspur have a better game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.

Odds

Newcastle United are a solid favorite against Tottenham Hotspur, according to the latest English Premier League odds, being -119 to win.

The over/under is set at 2.5 goals.
