The Magpies would love to have Nico Gonzalez ready to go as he could be announced as a marquee signing from Man City in the coming hours. New signing Amar Dedic impressed on debut against Liverpool and last summer transfers Yoane Wissa and Anthony Elanga had perhaps their best games in a black and white shirt.
Spurs boss De Zerbi’s lineup did not include Mateus Fernandes to start against Brentford and that seems likely to change on Saturday. The club have also added Omar Marmoush and Savio since the conclusion of Week 1, and will soon welcome back Pedro Porro and Micky van de Ven.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Newcastle United prediction
Newcastle is young and will hit some speedbumps early this season and perhaps for a long period of time. Away to a desperate Spurs seems like a prime opportunity to trip on a hurdle. Spurs 2-1 Newcastle.
