TOTTENHAM – NEWCASTLE | Sunday 5:30pm
Another match with a high coefficient of difficulty for Antonio Conte and his Tottenham, who in the midweek round have suffered their second defeat in the last four days of the championship. The coach from Salento did not like his team’s performance on Wednesday night at Old Trafford against Manchester United, but given the numerous absentees he has had to reckon with for the last few weeks, it was really difficult to get a result against a team like the Red Devils, who are on the upswing. Spurs are now looking for redemption against Newcastle, with the aim of at least maintaining third place. The risk is to lose ground to Manchester City, who in Saturday’s early match got a clear victory against Brighton and flew to +3 from the Londoners.
Against the Magpies, Conte will have to do without Kulusevski and Richarlison, two players that the former Juventus and Inter Milan coach cannot do without at the moment. The offensive manoeuvre loses a lot without them and it was quite evident in Manchester. In return, however, Conte will find Emerson Royal, who has served his three-day ban. Tottenham will have to deal with an opponent that is growing match by match. Newcastle have been on a six-game winning streak and picked up their third victory in their last four matches this week, 1-0 over Frank Lampard’s Everton, who were beaten by Almiron’s goal. The Bianconeri are currently in the European zone: they are currently sixth on 18 points. Eddie Howe, however, also has a full infirmary: Saint-Maximin, Krafth, Isak and probably Joelinton, who came off injured on Wednesday against the Toffees, will be missing.
The Prediction
A match that could be affected by the many absences on both sides. A reaction from Tottenham, who remain slight favourites over Newcastle, cannot be ruled out. In any case, it will be a very balanced match.
