Newcastle United will clash with Tottenham Hotspur in a pre-season friendly on Sunday, August 3, 2025. Both teams are looking to fine-tune their squads before the start of the Premier League season. This football match prediction will be a key indicator of their forms.
Team News and Lineups
Both teams are dealing with some team news that could impact their lineups. Newcastle is navigating the potential transfer of star striker Alexander Isak, who has been training separately. This leaves them with a gap to fill in their attacking lineup. Meanwhile, Tottenham has a few injury concerns, with Dominic Solanke and Destiny Udogie being major doubts for the match.
Predicted Newcastle Lineup: Pope; Trippier, Schar, Lascelles, Burn; Guimaraes, Tonali, Joelinton; Murphy, Osula, Barnes.
Predicted Tottenham Lineup: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence; Maddison, Bentancur, Sarr; Kudus, Richarlison, Son.
Head-to-Head and Prediction
Historically, the head-to-head record between these two clubs is quite competitive. Tottenham has a slight edge with 74 wins to Newcastle’s 64, with 34 draws between them.
Given the current team news and pre-season form, this match is shaping up to be a close contest. However, Tottenham’s recent win over Arsenal will give them a confidence boost. We predict a narrow 2-1 victory for Tottenham in this pre-season friendly.
