The Tottenham Hotspurs will welcome Newcastle United for their Week 9 matchup in the English Premier League. The Magpies were finally able to notch their first win of the season, but a result against the Spurs might prove too tricky for Alan Pardew’s side. Both clubs are in a must-win situation to keep the pressure off. Here is a list of five predictions for the game.

Alan Pardew finally caught a break against Leicester City last weekend. The Newcastle boss had been under immense pressure from the club and the supporters who wanted his head. However, one result will not be enough to turn the fans around. Expect Tottenham to spoil Pardew’s reprieve.

Hugo Lloris has been Tottenham’s best player so far. Expect the Frenchman to continue his impressive form by denying Newcastle all day long.

3. Tottenham Scores 1 Goal

Outside their win against QPR, Tottenham has been unable to score more than a single goal in any game. The Spurs' front line is inconsistent and it is too much to expect them to score multiple goals. The Lily White will only score one goal.

2. Low Scoring Game

Both teams have been inefficient on the attacking end this season. The match should be a somewhat dull encounter with one, maybe two goals in the match.

With the game prediction being a low-scoring affair, the extra rest allowed to Newcastle because of European competition exclusion should give the Magpies an edge. Things are far from great for Pardew and his team, but getting a draw against the Spurs should be a good result for them.
