Match preview for Tottenham vs Newcastle
Two clubs that have failed to match the ambitions of their supporters meet tomorrow night Tottenham hosting Newcastle in North London.
Spurs start the mid-week round of fixtures in 15th place with one eye nervously looking over their shoulder. Saturday’s 2-0 defeat at Manchester United saw Thomas Frank’s side slip to within six points of the bottom three and extend their run without a league win into December.
It’s been a tough time for Spurs but they can take some solace in the fact that their visitors are experiencing an equally tough time tomorrow.
Newcastle have won one game in eight in all competitions and the pressure is starting to mount on boss Eddie Howe.
The Tynesiders were beaten 3-2 at home by Brentford at the weekend and sit 12th in the table.
The trip to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is the latest fixture in a chaotic period that is far from over. They travel to Aston Villa in the FA Cup at the weekend before a two-legged Champions League play-off against Qarabag, either side of a league game at Manchester City.
Howe admitted this morning that this was his most challenging period since he joined the Saudi Arabian-owned club in 2021.
“Yes, I think so,” he said. “I think any time you’re not getting the results you want. I don’t think the performances have been particularly bad. Statistically, we’re still very strong in every game, but the results certainly haven’t matched it.
“It’s been a tough run of games. It’s been a tough run of games for us. Here we all need to show our strength of character, our resolve, our resilience and the feeling of how important this is to us and most importantly on the pitch.”
