Both teams come in on completely different trajectories. Newcastle United have found the form that got them back to the Champions League two seasons ago under Eddie Howe. Winners of their last four in all competitions, the Magpies have scored at least three goals in each game moving up to fifth in the table.

It's been a rough few weeks for Manchester United, who now hope to end 2024 with a good result against visiting Newcastle United on Monday.

With just one win from their last five games in the English Premier League, Tottenham are in real need of a win as they take on a Newcastle United team that are shaping up as genuine top-four contenders.
