LAST TIME OUT Newcastle United host Tottenham Hotspur in matchday 30 of the Premier League on Sunday 4th April, 2:05 pm at St. James’ Park. The hosts currently sit in 17th place in the table having lost against Brighton and Hove Albion 3-0 last time out, while the visitors are in 7th after their 0-2 win against Aston Villa.
4 TIMES A LADY? Spurs arrive in Newcastle on the back of 3 Premier League away wins at Sid James’ Park – the Lilywhites have apparently never won 4 on the bounce on the Tyne.
COUNTER ATTACKERS Tottenham have scored 10 goals from direct attacks this season, more than any other side in the division so far. A direct attack is when the ball starts within a team’s own half and contains at least 50% of the ball’s movement
