Spurs are in desperate need of a response as they head into a testing fixture against Newcastle United, with pressure rising and supporters demanding far more from Thomas Frank and his players. Here’s how to watch the clash between Tottenham and Newcastle.
Tottenham Hotspur are desperate to get back to winning ways following their defeat at yet another London rival, Fulham, at the weekend.
Fixtures are coming thick and fast for Spurs, who are set to return to action three days after their disappointing 2-1 loss at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Pressure is mounting on Thomas Frank, who Spurs fans have described as ‘not a real Spurs manager‘, following the recent slump in form and the manager’s comment on fans booing during the game.
Up next for Tottenham is a familiar foe, Newcastle United, a side in good form and one that has already beaten Spurs this season.

Team news for Spurs and Newcastle
Cristian Romero is set to return to action here after having completed his one-game ban following his suspension after picking up five bookings in the opening 12 games.
Meanwhile, Dominic Solanke, Dejan Kulusevski, Kota Takai and Ben Davies are all out, with reports claiming that they could return later this month.
Radu Dragusin, despite having featured in a behind-closed-doors match in November, is not yet available to take part, while James Maddison will not feature until next year, and Yves Bissouma’s return date is unknown.
Newcastle have their own issues to contend with, with Nick Pope unavailable due to a knock. Sven Botman is a doubt as he continues to deal with a back injury, while William Osula is sidelined with an ankle issue.

Spurs Web prediction for Tottenham vs Newcastle
Looking at the form of both sides, Newcastle are in a much better place, having secured three wins in their last five outings in the league, including a victory over Manchester City.
Spurs, on the other hand, are with just one win in their last five, with their sole victory coming all the way back in October against Everton, leaving them with a record of no wins in November.
The two sides have met already this season, although it was in the Carabao Cup, and it was Newcastle who came out on top, beating Tottenham 2-0.
We expect a similar outcome here, with the Magpies proving to be a bit too much for Spurs at St James Park.
Score prediction – Newcastle 2-1 Tottenham.
