Team Analysis
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham head into their first home game of the season after their Matchweek 1 opener at Brentford, with record signing Sandro Tonali already looking at home in Roberto De Zerbi’s midfield. The addition of Mateus Fernandes for £85m gives Spurs even more control in the middle of the park, and De Zerbi will want a fast start in front of his own fans in his first full season in charge.
Key Storyline: Sandro Tonali faces his former club for the first time since his £100m move from Newcastle
Newcastle United
Newcastle travel to north London still absorbing a summer of enormous change. Losing Tonali, Anthony Gordon, Bruno Guimaraes and, a year on, Alexander Isak has left Matthias Jaissle rebuilding large parts of the team, with Bazoumana Toure the headline arrival so far. Their Matchweek 1 opener at home to Liverpool is a tough starting point, and Jaissle has admitted the squad still needs reinforcements before the window shuts.
Key Storyline: Matthias Jaissle still searching for the reinforcements needed after a summer of major exits
Key Betting Angles
The Tonali reunion adds spice, but the football matters too: Tottenham have more control in midfield and a settled front line, while Newcastle are still patching gaps left by a series of blockbuster sales. We expect Spurs to control possession and create the better chances in front of their own fans.

Our Prediction
Cole’s Pick: Tottenham Hotspur to Win
Tottenham look further along than Newcastle right now, with more clarity in personnel heading into the season. We’re backing the hosts to win here and build a strong start to the campaign, with Tonali’s return to face his old side adding extra motivation.
Confidence: medium, Tottenham are the more settled side but Newcastle should not be underestimated against Liverpool in Matchweek 1 or here.
