Newcastle United will welcome Tottenham Hotspur at St. James' Park on Sunday as action continues in matchweek three of the 2024-25 Premier League season.
After the transfer window closed, both of these teams—who started the Premier League season with a draw and a win—will be free to focus solely on on-field matters.
The Magpies, who had to play with 10 men for more than one hour after Fabian Schar was sent red, battled their way to a 1-0 victory over Southampton in their first home encounter.
The Lilywhites, on the other hand, should have won both of their games after dominating Leicester in the opening half of their match. However, Jamie Vardy nullified Pedro Porro's attempt to clinch a draw for the Championship champions, so they had to settle for a point.

Newcastle vs. Tottenham prediction
One of Newcastle's most memorable victories over Tottenham in recent years occurred in 2023 when the Magpies raced to a 5-0 lead within the first 20 minutes, ultimately securing a 6-1 win. Newcastle have made a strong start this season, and as usual, St James' Park is expected to have a loud and intense atmosphere.
Spurs demonstrated their attacking prowess last weekend, albeit against weaker opposition, so this could turn out to be an entertaining match for neutral fans, with the visitors doing just about enough to eke out all three points.
Prediction: Newcastle United 2-3 Tottenham Hotspur
