Newcastle United will host Tottenham Hotspur at St. James' Park on Sunday the third match of the 2024-25 Premier League season.
With the transfer window now closed, both teams—who began the season with a draw and a win—can fully concentrate on their on-field performances.
In their first home game, the Magpies secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Southampton, despite being reduced to 10 men for over an hour following Fabian Schar's red card.
Meanwhile, the Lilywhites should have won both of their matches, having dominated the first half against Leicester. However, Jamie Vardy's goal canceled out Pedro Porro's effort, forcing Tottenham to settle for a draw in their opener.
Tottenham's second match of the season, a clash with Everton on August 24, was far more routine. Goals from Yves Bissouma and Cristian Romero, along with a brace from Son Heung-Min, secured a comfortable 4-0 win for Ange Postecoglou's side.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times, and the latest lineup news.

Newcastle vs. Tottenham prediction
One of Newcastle's most memorable victories over Tottenham in recent years came in 2023 when the Magpies raced to a 5-0 lead within the first 20 minutes, ultimately securing a 6-1 win. Newcastle have made a strong start this season, and as usual, St James' Park is expected to have a loud and intense atmosphere.
Spurs demonstrated their attacking prowess last weekend, albeit against weaker opposition, so this could turn out to be an entertaining match for neutral fans, with the visitors doing just about enough to eke out all three points.
Prediction: Newcastle United 2-3 Tottenham Hotspur
