Given the frequency with which we play to the north stand in the first half and south in the 2nd, I doubt it.

Tottenham Hotspur football club record against Newcastle United, including all match details.

We have a better record against them than I thought. 4-1-1 for the last 6 away games. But we have lost 2 of the last 3 and last season we lost 6-1.
Yep. It’s a tradition at all levels of the game!
One of the reasons the captains go to the middle of the pitch.
Yep, the majority of the time teams stay where they are as even away sides would rather attack their own fans 2nd half. Everton flipped us back in December though.
I’d forgotten that, but now mentioned I think that is right. Coin toss important thenThis. I only recently learned from seeing a clip of Ben fosters podcast that St James park pitch is a massive slope. So in the second half the away team is playing uphill. Seems mental
Last season's result is all but completely irrelevant.
From the start of the season this is the game I've wanted us to win more than any other. Not only because they beat us heavily, but just the smugness that occured afterwards from the players and fans of a club that's spent all of recent memory scrapping around relegation.
I'm starting to think I personally may have been too harsh on PEH.
Could be anything this. A win would be great and our record up there is good but I’m never confident in this fixture.
Can't see any change up front, Ange will stick with Werner/Johnson's pace.
Would be surprised if both Bentancur and PEH start but expecting the former for sure, probably for Biss.
We should be going there and winning tbh. They're a distinctly average side.

I don't think it's that significant of a difference. The overall site is on a slope (just walk up Barrack Road on the West side of the stadium) but I'm sure they've levelled the pitch as best as they can.This.

Some of the Barcode fans reckon it's a 1 metre slope.
We're Playing Downhill In The Second Half - Honest! - The Newcastle United Blog
There's always been the view that the St. James' Park has a slope to it.

Let's beat Newcastle and hope Villa get a draw at those cunts. If we can put dome distance between us and the Brummies whilst the Goons hit a roadblock, that's a proper weekend of footy that.
Then let's fucking do them at our ground and their uber twat of a head coach can cry all he wants about them missing out on another title. Arsey...
This lot should be expelled for refusing to bring the away fans to the lower level like everyone else.
Finally relegate them now so the players can go somewhere hot before the Woolwich game.

I'd love Isak at Spurs, he'd fit the bill for Ange
However... back to the game in hand.. Maddison needs to get his finger out slightly and Bentancur should start perhaps with PEH in front of the back 4.. who knows
1-2 Son and 1 other to score.
