Plenty Of Goals Are Expected
This is a meeting that always promises plenty of goals and the same can be said for Saturday despite Newcastle’s recent clean sheet record.
Seven of the last ten times these sides have met has seen at least four goals hit the back of the net.
Tottenham’s defence has been leaky at home with 15 goals conceded in the last four games in front of their fans.
However, in that time they have also scored three goals against Chelsea and Liverpool and four against Manchester United. So a high-scoring game can’t be ruled out.
