Newcastle United host top-four rivals Tottenham this Sunday.
Fresh from their penalty shootout victory against Nottingham Forest in midweek, Newcastle United now turn their attention back to the Premier League this weekend.
Eddie Howe will be looking to carry that Carabao Cup success into Sunday as the Magpies face their toughest test yet, in the shape of Tottenham.
Like Newcastle, Spurs have had a pretty mixed start to the season, starting off with a disappointing draw at newly promoted Leicester City, followed by an impressive 4-0 thumping of Everton.
Having thrashed the Lilywhites in their last two fixtures at St James’ Park, Toon supporters will be optimistic ahead of the clash.
Newcastle v Tottenham kick-off time
Newcastle’s clash with Tottenham is scheduled for a 1:30pm BST kick-off on Sunday 1 September, 2024.
St James’ Park will play host to the match.
Is Newcastle v Tottenham on TV?
Supporters will be glad to hear that the game is set to be broadcasted live on SkySports Main Event, with coverage set to start from 12:30pm. SkySports subscribers can stream the tie via Sky Go.
Team news
Newcastle’s mid-week Carabao Cup clash saw the long-awaited return of Sandro Tonali, who started in the Toon midfield following the end of his ten-month ban. It wouldn’t be a surprise to see the Italian keep his place in the middle of the park, featuring alongside Bruno Guimaraes and Joelinton.
The Magpies raced into an early lead against Forest on Wednesday night thanks to a well-taken goal from Joe Willock, the former Arsenal man however picked up an injury not long after and is now a doubt for the game against Spurs.
Tottenham themselves have some injury absences with both Dominic Solanke and Richarlison set to miss the trip to Tyneside, meaning Heung-min Son will likely start in the number nine position.
