Spurs travel up to the North East this evening in the hope that good time vibes of the North London Derby aren’t exposed as a one-off, live on TV.
Should Newcastle win tonight, then that’s their double over us for the season, as the Bar Codes beat us 0-1 in London back in August. That said, if Tottenham can turn it on again, then that will make it 3 back to back wins at Sid Janes Park, the first since 1975.
I expect Dele Alli and Tanguy Ndombele to feature in the bench, along with Ryan Sessegnon and Oliver Skipp. On the pitch, Jose’s switch of Sonny to Kane’s right was successful, as was playing Luca Moura on the left wing.
Doom and gloom fans will be pleased to hear that Mourinho historically has had abysmal luck at Newcastle, and has lost more Premier League games there, than anywhere else.
Kick off is another commute vexing 6 pm, but we’ll have all the in-game highlights and reaction through until full-time.
