Tottenham Hotspur faces a critical Premier League match against Newcastle United at St James' Park on December 2, 2025, amid a period of poor form with four consecutive winless results, leaving them in 12th place with 18 points. Newcastle, also level on points, has historically been a difficult opponent for Spurs, having won six times over the past three seasons, including a recent 2-0 victory in the League Cup. Tottenham's defense has been plagued by avoidable errors, and their attack struggles to find rhythm, despite some positive signs such as a goal against PSG and contributions from players like Kudus and Kolo Muani. Manager Thomas Frank has rotated his squad and changed formations without significant success, facing mounting criticism. The match is set to be played at Newcastle's home ground, with line-ups confirmed for both sides. Tottenham needs a win to improve morale and standings, but their recent performances have increased pressure on coach Frank, who must turn things around quickly to avoid further criticism.
