Tottenham host Newcastle in the Premier League with both teams juggling injuries and a need to win to keep their hopes of a top four finish on track. <\/p>\n

Both sides lost Thursday night, Spurs to West Ham and Newcastle to Everton, so today\u2019s match is an opportunity for one of them to get back to winning ways. <\/p>\n

Ange Postecoglou perhaps needs a victory more than Eddie Howe. After a bright start Spurs have now gone five league games without a win, losing four of the fixtures in that run. Despite that poor form, they remain a point above Newcastle who have been fluctuating between wins and losses at an inconsistent rate. <\/p>\n

Just one point separates the teams so today\u2019s encounter could prove vital for the final finishing positions at the end of the season. <\/p>\n

Tottenham vs Newcastle<\/h3>\n

We\u2019ve already seen plenty of goals in the earlier kick-offs today. Could we be in for some more this afternoon? Well, history certainly points to it.<\/p>\n

In fact, in Premier League history, only Arsenal v Tottenham (88) and Liverpool v Newcastle (87) have seen more first-half goals scored than Newcastle v Tottenham (86). Indeed, the Magpies led 5-0 at half-time in their last meeting in April.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Tottenham vs Newcastle<\/h3>\n

Some pre-match thoughts from the Spurs boss:<\/p>\n

Tottenham vs Newcastle<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s another trip down to London for Newcastle but the nation\u2019s capital has been a happy hunting ground for the Magpies recently.<\/p>\n

They are unbeaten in their last eight Premier League games in London (W4 D4) since a 5-1 defeat at Tottenham in April 2022. It\u2019s the Magpies\u2019 longest-ever unbeaten league run in the capital.<\/p>\n

Can they keep the run going today?\n<\/p>\n

Ange Postecoglou grateful to Eddie Howe for journey to Tottenham<\/h3>\n

Ange Postecoglou admits he owes Newcastle boss Eddie Howe a thank you for his unintended role in his journey to Tottenham.<\/p>\n

Sunday will see Postecoglou and Howe go head-to-head for the first time, but back in the summer of 2021 they were the talk of Glasgow.<\/p>\n

Howe was widely expected to take the vacant Celtic role only to turn it down following prolonged negotiations, which resulted in Postecoglou getting the nod.<\/p>\n

The Australian never looked back and after he won five trophies during his two-year stay in Scotland, it convinced Spurs to give the 58-year-old his first opportunity to be a Premier League manager.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh absolutely, sliding doors moment,\u201d Postecoglou acknowledged. \u201cThere\u2019s probably been no bigger decision in me being here today than Eddie knocking back the Celtic job.<\/p>\n

\u201cI haven\u2019t thanked him, I probably should.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ange Postecoglou grateful to Eddie Howe for journey to Tottenham<\/h3>\n

After Eddie Howe turned down the Celtic job in 2021, the Scottish Premiership outfit hired Ange Postecoglou.<\/p>\n

Eddie Howe says Bruno Guimaraes \u2018at the fulcrum of everything\u2019 for Newcastle<\/h3>\n

Eddie Howe says Newcastle need Bruno Guimaraes to be at his best for his team to tick.<\/p>\n

The 26-year-old Brazil international has hit top form in recent weeks after battling his way through a persistent ankle injury which hampered him for several months. He was one of the Magpies\u2019 star performers in their Premier League victories over Chelsea and Manchester United and his return to that level could hardly have been better timed for head coach Howe as he contends with an ongoing selection crisis.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cYou need your top players to play really well when you\u2019re in a situation like this that we\u2019re in at the moment, and I think Bruno has certainly done that.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought Manchester United and Chelsea, were up there with his best performances, and the first half against PSG. He\u2019s such an important person to that part of the game for us that it is hard work for him physically, but he\u2019s able to repeat those physical exertions that we need him to, so I think his game\u2019s in a very good place.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has to be for us to perform well because he\u2019s at the fulcrum of everything really.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kieran Trippier vows to improve following Everton display <\/h3>\n

Kieran Trippier has vowed to get back to his best after a disappointing performance in Newcastle United\u2019s 3-0 defeat to Everton.<\/p>\n

Trippier was at fault for the first two goals his side conceded, giving the ball away in the build-up to Dwight McNeil and Abdoulaye Doucoure\u2019s second-half strikes.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t hide. We\u2019ve just got to move on now, we\u2019ve got another big game in three days,\u2019 said the former Spurs man.<\/p>\n

\u201cListen, it\u2019s one of those where you\u2019ve made mistakes. Players make mistakes \u2013 I\u2019ve made a couple today, I hold my hands up, I take responsibility and now it\u2019s about getting on the bike again and getting ready for another big game in three days against Spurs.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me personally, obviously I\u2019m very disappointed because of my own actions in certain moments in the game, but that\u2019s something I\u2019ll deal with. I\u2019m an experienced player and I can handle these things.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut the best thing about it is there\u2019s a game in three days where we can try to put it right.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ange Postecoglou urges Tottenham to bounce back from West Ham defeat<\/h3>\n

Ange Postecoglou called on wasteful Tottenham to not feel sorry for themselves after they suffered a fourth defeat in five matches with a 2-1 home loss to West Ham.<\/p>\n

Their midweek loss extends Spurs\u2019 winless run to five matches despite them taking the lead in each of those fixtures, which is a new Premier League record but Postecoglou urged them to bounce back on Sunday when Newcastle visit north London.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s no point in feeling sorry for ourselves, looking for a cuddle anywhere,\u201d Postecoglou insisted.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s only one way to change our circumstances and that is to come here on Sunday and put in a performance. Not just play good football but go out there and show some conviction about ourselves as a team.<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes we can disguise how we\u2019re going by playing some nice stuff but like I said from day one, that\u2019s not what I\u2019m about. I want to win and that\u2019s why I came to this football club and that\u2019s the message.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve still got a long way to go, I\u2019ve said that from the start. We\u2019re still right at the beginning of what we need to create and days like today just give me further evidence and fuel of how much we need to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tottenham vs Newcastle – Spurs team news<\/h3>\n

Ange Postecoglou makes two changes from his side\u2019s midweek defeat to West Ham. Sarr replaces Hojbjerg in central midfield, while Richarlison comes in for Lo Celso. The Brazilian forward has been listed last on Spurs\u2019 lineup graphic so perhaps that suggests he might start through the middle.<\/p>\n

Tottenham XI: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Davies, Udogie; Bissouma, Sarr; Kulusevski, Johnson, Son, Richarlison.<\/strong><\/p>\n
