Tottenham will be hoping to bounce back with a win this weekend when they face Newcastle United, following their 3–0 defeat to Brentford – and here’s how you can watch the clash.
Tottenham Hotspur are set to return to Premier League action this weekend after their 5-1 thrashing of Charlton Athletic on Wednesday night.
That is the sort of reaction Roberto De Zerbi would have expected from his Spurs side, who were abysmal in their Premier League opener against Brentford.
The Bees were 3-0 victors at the Gtech Community Stadium in a game where they dominated Roberto De Zerbi’s side from start to finish.
However, Spurs have another chance to turn things around as they face Newcastle United next in the Premier League.
