Potentially on the brink of full-blown crisis mode, an ailing Tottenham Hotspur side commence proceedings for 2025 at home to Newcastle United in Saturday's early Premier League kickoff.

Tottenham Hotspur:

Tottenham's struggles under Ange Postecoglou have intensified, as they enter 2025 with just three wins in their last 13 matches. A late collapse against Wolves in their final game of 2024 saw them drop further in the table, leaving their European hopes in tatters. Now winless in five consecutive home Premier League games, Spurs risk equaling a 1994 record of futility in North London. Facing a revitalized Newcastle side, Postecoglou's men must rediscover form quickly, especially with an EFL Cup semi-final against Liverpool looming.

Newcastle United:

Flying high after a dominant 3-0 win at Old Trafford, Newcastle arrive in London on the back of four straight league victories and four consecutive clean sheets. Eddie Howe's side have climbed to fifth, just three points off the top four, and their defensive solidity is a stark contrast to earlier struggles. With a stellar recent record against Spurs—winning four of the last five meetings—Newcastle are primed to continue their surge and pile on the misery for the hosts.
