Tottenham vs Newcastle LIVE Premier League team news and line
Spurs sit in 11th at the start of the year, while the Magpies are still on the hunt for European football
Postecoglou 'not going to change' despite Spurs' poor season

Tottenham face Newcastle in the Premier League’s early kick-off, with the hosts looking to grab a much-needed three points to relieve some of the pressure surrounding Ange Postecoglou.

Spurs sit in 11th as the new year begins, with questions surrounding the Australian after a string of poor results, though they remain in contention for the league cup and European places in 2025.

Meanwhile, Newcastle made a similarly mixed start to the season but found form before the end of the year, with four straight wins putting them in fifth and right among the contenders for Champions League football next season.

This will also be the first Premier League match that Thomas Tuchel will attend after taking charge of England on January 1. The German will be watching the likes of Anthony Gordon and James Maddison as he takes his place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Tottenham 1-2 Newcastle

If you’re Alexander Isak you are fancying your chances of scoring even more today against this Tottenham defence.

It’s nine goals in seven games for the striker now since the start of December. Red-hot. And 12 goals for the season is only behind Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland in the Premier League.

GOAL! Tottenham 1-2 Newcastle (ISAK 38’)

Newcastle lead! And it was coming! Every move from the visitors was threatening and another slick move cuts Newcastle open.

Murphy gets down the right and beats Spence to pull the ball across. Dragusin can’t clear and Isak is ready behind him for the tap-in.

Isak scores for the seventh game in a row and keeps up his hot streak.

Tottenham 1-1 Newcastle

33 mins: Another good move from Newcastle as they fly forward down the left and Gordon plays through Guimaraes.

Porro gets across to concede the corner. Gordon pings it towards the back-post (Son and Cunha style) but Austin responds well and punches away under pressure. He also draws the foul.

Newcastle well on top before half time.

Tottenham 1-1 Newcastle

31 mins: CHANCE! Yep, the second Newcastle goal is coming. And they are inches away as Guimaraes threads in Murphy and he slides the ball across goal.

Isak stretches to get a toe on it but the finish fades away from the far post. Gordon was behind him and had a tap-in.

Tottenham 1-1 Newcastle

29 mins: Newcastle are starting to purr, as Isak gets into the box with a threatening run. Livramento then wins a corner with a run on the opposite side.

Austin is being cornered from the corners but Hall’s delivery is too close to the front man.

Tottenham 1-1 Newcastle

27 mins: A chance for Tottenham to break as Gordon’s shot is blocked and Werner takes off at speed on the counter.

Gordon, though, tracks back really well and wins it back alongside Livramento. Porro then shoots over the bar.

Tottenham 1-1 Newcastle

25 mins: Now then... Dan Burn stretches his arms out wide as Kulusevski attempts to flick it past him. Burn blocks with his shoulder and the referee gives handball... .but Burn escapes a yellow card.

That would have been a second yellow and a red card... but Burn gets away with it.

Jamie Braidwood4 January 2025 12:56

Tottenham 1-1 Newcastle

23 mins: Newcastle threaten again as Murphy puts an excellent ball across the face. It feels as if the visitors can get through so quickly when they win it back on halfway.

Jamie Braidwood4 January 2025 12:55

Tottenham 1-1 Newcastle

19 mins: SAVE! Newcastle attack from where as Botman wins it back from Solanke. In a flash, Isak plays in Gordon but he can’t get his finish beyond Austin. Instead, it’s into the front post area and the goalkeeper saves.

Gordon should do better.
