⚽️ Goals stats: A matchup destined for action
Goals have not been far away from the Magpies in recent weeks and this once again looks like a strong angle.
No fewer than seven of Newcastle’s last ten games in the Premier League have witnessed four goals or more. It seems Eddie Howe’s side have certainly found consistency in one area of their game this season.
There have been 3 or more goals scored in 71% of Newcastle’s league matches this season, a total that has landed in seven consecutive games at St. James’ Park.
Tottenham games have been good value for goals all season, with Postecoglou’s attacking style encouraging plenty of goals at both ends.
Similarly to their Saturday hosts, nine of Spurs’ last 16 matches in the Premier League have witnessed 4+ goals.
Eight of Tottenham’s last 10 matches on the road have resulted in over 2.5 goals.
There are certainly defensive concerns for the North London side, with both teams scoring in eight of their last ten games.
And, for the punters that like the history behind their selections, five of the last six meetings between Newcastle United and Tottenham have also produced over 3.5 goals.
Predictions:
⚽ Both teams to score @ 1.30
⚽ Over 2.5 goals @ 1.33
⚽ Over 3.5 goals @ 1.85
🎯 Shooting stats: Two clear standouts
Alexander Isak continues to shine in the run up to the end of the season, with the Swede scoring five goals in his last six games for Newcastle.
Isak averages a respectable 2.69 shots per 90 in the Premier League this season and 1.40 shots on target to the same measure, boasting the best accuracy in the Newcastle team.
He has hit the target on two occasions in three consecutive matches and at least once in all of his last seven, while scoring in all of his last five games at St James’ Park, racking up a total of six goals in that period.
Sticking to the main attacking outlets in this clash, Heung-min Son also looks poised to threat on Saturday. Son is having another impressive campaign with 15 goals and 9 assists across his 28 Premier League matches this season.
Son has contributed three goals and four assists in his last eight league games and considering Newcastle’s consistently shaky defence, he could certainly cause some damage here. Son is averaging 0.92 goal contributions per 90 so far this campaign.
The Spurs skipper is averaging 1.23 shots on target per 90 this season and has hit the target in five of his last six.
Predictions:
🔄️⚽ Alexander Isak to have 1+ shots on target @ 1.29
🔄️⚽ Alexander Isak to score or assist @ 2.0
🔄️⚽ Heung-min Son to have 1+ shots on target @ 1.36
🔄️⚽ Heung-min Son to score or assist @ 1.91
🚩 Corners stats: Value on overs in open contest
Both teams are showing strength in the set piece markets this season and boast some strong corners numbers of late.
Newcastle’s home games this season are averaging a respectable 10.00 corners a game, which is complimented very well with Spurs’ away game average of a whopping 12.67 total corners.
The most value from the corners markets comes with the visitors. The Spurs corner dominance was apparent again last time out as they registered an impressive 12 corners at home to Nottingham Forest in a match that witnessed 14 total corners.
Spurs have now witnessed 9+ corners in nine consecutive matches in the Premier League, which feels small next to the fact that all of their last 12 consecutive away matches actually witnessed a minimum of 10 corners – dating all the way back to the first week of September.
Set pieces are seemingly inevitable when Spurs play away from home, and with such an action-packed game expected in the matchup, there should be plenty of corner potential once again.
⚽ Over 9.5 corners @ 1.45
⚽ Over 10.5 corners @ 1.75
🛑 Fouls stats: Bissouma to make an impression
Yves Bissouma has been one of Spurs’ prolific foulers this season, picking up eight yellows and two reds in the process. Bissouma is averaging 1.49 fouls per 90 so far this campaign and his recent form is certainly a testament to those figures.
He has committed at least one foul in six consecutive matches, including one last week having only played 45 minutes against Forest. Prior to that match he had committed 2 fouls in each of his last two games.
Predictions:
🔄️⚽ Yves Bissouma to commit 1+ fouls @ 1.22
