Newcastle vs Spurs | Form guide - Magpies' start and form at St James' Park

Newcastle are unbeaten in their first three games of the season.

Eddie Howe's side overcame the early sending off of Fabian Schar to beat Southampton on the opening day of the season. Anthony Gordan equalised late to earn a point in a 1-1 draw at Bournemouth last weekend and they came through their midweek Carabao Cup tie at Forest on penalties after another 1-1 draw, having gone ahead through Joe Willock inside a minute.

Home form is strong at St James' Park. Newcastle have lost just two of their last 18 home Premier League games (W12 D4), going unbeaten in nine at St James’ Park since losing back-to-back matches against Nottingham Forest and Man City in December/January last season.

Meanwhile, Magpies have lost just one of their last 17 home Premier League games against London-based sides (W13 D3), winning all seven such matches last season by an aggregate scoreline of 21-4.
