Newcastle United XI vs Tottenham Hotspur – Predicted lineup and team news
Aug 29 2026 06:51 · By onefootball.com · 59 Reads
Newcastle United travel to North London on Saturday still searching for their first league win of the season, having twice led at home to Liverpool before a stoppage-time penalty earned the visitors a point. Matthias Jaissle’s side backed that performance up with a 3-2 Carabao Cup win over West Bromwich Albion in midweek.
Newcastle United team news
Newly-appointed captain Dan Burn remains out with ankle ligament damage, and Joelinton (groin) and Tino Livramento (calf) are also sidelined. William Osula is still nursing a foot injury and remains unavailable. New signing Bazoumana Toure scored against West Brom despite “feeling a bit of pain” during that match and is expected to be fit for Saturday.
Nico Gonzalez, unveiled to supporters as a £50 million signing from Manchester City before the West Brom win, could be handed his Newcastle debut, though that would likely mean either Lewis Miley or fellow new arrival Sean Steur making way.
Anthony Elanga, who opened the scoring against Liverpool, is expected to be preferred to Jacob Murphy on the right, while Harvey Barnes, who scored twice against West Brom, and Toure compete for the left-wing spot.
With Osula still unavailable, Nick Woltemade is set to retain his place in attack alongside Yoane Wissa. Amar Dedic, Malick Thiaw, Sven Botman and Lewis Hall are expected to form the back four in front of Lukas Horníček, who has taken over as Newcastle’s goalkeeper for the time being.

Newcastle United possible starting XI (4-2-3-1): Horníček; Dedic, Thiaw, Botman, Hall; Gonzalez, Miley; Elanga, Wissa, Barnes; Woltemade
