We lost money on Tottenham Thursday, who should've beaten West ham after having that 1-0 lead through the first half but was squandered with lackadaisical possessions of the ball on the back defensive lines, followed by an injury to their best player Son who will be a game time decision to be fitted for today game. Newcastle are as terrible of road team as Tottenham have been at home, so it's hard to pick a side here between two teams who are neck and neck in the standings, and need this win to elevate themselves. Both teams to score has been the trend in this matchup, seeing it happen in all of the last 5 meetings. There's possibility for lots of goals here, with 4 of the last 5 head to heads going over 3.5 goals, and all 5 going over 2.5 goals. Both teams are hankered by injuries that will effect the levels of this game, but there's no reason to believe that will stop these teams from scoring or being scored on, especially Newcastle without their best goalie Nick Pope (they've been giving up 2+ goals to the home team in 4 of the last 5 road matches). Tottenham looking to avoid an additional loss to their 5 game losing streak, so we should see fireworks here and both teams scoring, but we should side bet out money on the team with better fortune this back half of the season, which are the Magpies.
