Christian Post Report – Tottenham Hotspur celebrate a goal.
Newcastle United host Tottenham Hotspur at St. James’ Park in the English Premier League on Sunday.
The match is on April 19, 2015 at 11:00 AM ET and can be watched online through live stream (details below).
Newcastle have struggled so far this season and find themselves 13th in the league table. They are only nine points from safety and need to pick up a few more points if they want to avoid battling the relegation zone.
Unfortunately, their recent form has not displayed their capabilities. They have lost their last five matches and have not found their scoring touch at all.
In those losses, Newcastle have only scored one goal; in a 2-1 loss to Arsenal at home. They failed to find the back of the net against Manchester United, Everton, Sunderland and Liverpool.
They are also missing a number of players either to injury or suspension as Papisse Cisse will miss the clash against Tottenham due to a recent red card, while Cheikh Tiote, Massadio Haidara and other players are also out as they nurse injuries.
On the other side, Tottenham are seventh and are also slowly losing out of the race for European spots. They are seven points behind Manchester City for the last place in the Champions League, while they are three points behind Liverpool for the Europa League spot.
Spurs have only won once in their last four matches and recently lost to Aston Villa, the last team that Newcastle beat.
Their last win came at home, in a thrilling 4-3 victory over Leicester City as they rebounded from a heavy 3-0 loss to United the week before.
Regarding their head-to-head battle, Tottenham thrashed Newcastle in their first meeting of the season.
At White Hart Lane, four different players scored for Tottenham as they dominated from start to finish, while Newcastle could not keep up with the pace set by players like Christian Eriksen and Harry Kane.
