Tottenham vs Newcastle prediction

THE FORECAST

Tottenham stands with 0 points at the bottom after a heavy 0-3 defeat and is dealing with an impressive injury list where Simons, Kulusevski and Odobert are out long-term, while the transfer activity (multiple departures of key players such as Romero, Bissouma and Palhinha) also puts squad cohesion under pressure. Newcastle admittedly also has relevant absences (Joelinton, Livramento, Burn, Schär) and lost Bruno Guimarães and Tonali in the transfer period, but based on the early season data is in a slightly more stable position. Both teams have only 3 days rest after the League Cup and won't play again for 7 days, meaning rotation doesn't need to be limited for either side; the weather conditions are mild enough that no significant style adjustment is expected, but Tottenham's weak start and deeper squad crisis give Newcastle a slight advantage away from home.
