Newcastle United vs Tottenham Hotspur: Carabao Cup preview

The latest match in the fourth round will be followed immediately by the Carabao quarter-final draw and only one of these Premier League titans will be in the bowl.

Mark Chapman will oversee the draw with Jobi McAnuff and Jamie Redknapp for the last eight. The fixtures will be played in the middle of December and Eddie Howe would dearly love to be there again.

Ange Postecoglou's Spurs were with them in the semi-finals last term, losing 4-1 on aggregate to eventual beaten finalists Liverpool.

Newcastle have won the last three fixtures between these foes, coming out on the right side of a pair of 2-1 games last season. They've won five of the last six meetings including a 6-1 demolition at St James' Park in the late spring of 2023.

The last time Spurs won on Tyneside was just over four years ago, when they beat Steve Bruce's Magpies 3-2 during the brief tenure of Nuno Espirito Santo.

Their lengthy injury list includes James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Yves Bissouma and Dominic Solanke. Frank will be able to welcome back many missing players over the course of the next month.

Howe and Newcastle are still without Tino Livramento, Lewis Hall and Frank's former Brentford striker Yoane Wissa. Sven Botman could be in line to play after dodging a concussion against Fulham.

FourFourTwo's prediction

Newcastle United 2-2 Tottenham Hotspur

FourFourTwo is backing a penalty shoot-out conclusion for this one. It's too close to call!

Tottenham Hotspur bid farewell to Son Heung-min earlier this year, ending a 10-year association with the North London club, as the Korean international went Stateside.

For the first time in his Spurs career, Son found himself mired in the bottom half of the Premier League, helping the club avoid relegation after finishing 17th in the table, having begun games on the bench with increasing regularity.

Son also won the first club trophy of his career after beating Manchester United in the UEFA Europa League Final, ending Spurs a 17-year trophy drought. But, rather than compete in the Champions League under new manager Thomas Frank, the Spurs captain rode off into the sunset.

After taking part in a pre-season friendly in Hong Kong versus Arsenal, Son announced his decision to depart Tottenham after a decade. He said his goodbyes to Spurs fans following a 1-1 friendly draw against Newcastle in South Korea before heading across the Pacific and joining MLS side LAFC for an MLS-record fee of $26.5 million (£19.7m).

It hasn't taken long for him to make that price tag look like a bargain, assisting a goal in his first start before opening the scoring in Dallas with a world-class free kick. It's a goal that will go down in the history books, with Son awarded the AT&T MLS Goal of the Year.

Son then enjoyed a world-class September that saw him score eight goals and register two assists in six appearances for club and country. After being nullified in his first three outings during October, he returned from the international break by opening the scoring in LAFC's regular season finale against Colorado Rapids.

LAFC are firing on all cylinders at the moment with six wins from eight. Only Inter Miami (81), Chicago Fire (68), and Vancouver Whitecaps (66) have scored more regular season goals than the Black and Gold (65).

Son has proven influential in LA's red-hot form alongside attacking partner Denis Bouanga, with the two combining for 18 straight LAFC goals at one point. Alongside D.C. United's Christian Benteke, Inter Miami's Luis Suarez, and Charlotte FC's Wilfried Zaha, he's the latest former Premier League star to gain a new lease on life in MLS.

Whilst Son's Spurs adventure is firmly in the rearview mirror, he has acknowledged that he still has unfinished business in North London.

"I think I deserve to say goodbye [to Spurs fans] in front of all of them, and also, they deserve to see me in a physical sense to say goodbye," stated Son in a recent interview with Shoot for Love.

"At the time the transfer was going on, the last game was in Korea, obviously I will go back to London to see all the Spurs fans. It’s going to be a very emotional day as well, but I think I definitely can’t wait to go back to London and see all the Spurs fans."

Son isn't just one of the greatest Asian players of all time, but one of the greatest Tottenham players of all time with 173 goals and 101 assists in 454 appearances. And unlike his longtime attacking partner Harry Kane, Son managed to leave Spurs with a trophy under his belt.

It's only a matter of time before Son receives his well-deserved standing ovation from Tottenham fans on his former patch, but for now, he's only focused on his current mission in California. LAFC will face Austin FC in a best-of-three series, counting on Son to continue delivering the goods and lead them to the Western Conference semi-finals.

After waiting 33 years for the first trophy of his senior career, could Son's second trophy be just around the corner? Stay tuned for what promises to be an enthralling post-season.

Tottenham are lining up a shock move for Mason Greenwood as they look to bolster their attacking options.

Thomas Frank has enjoyed a good start to life at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, they are unbeaten in the Champions League and currently find themselves third, five points behind leaders Arsenal.

However, their attackers are yet to find their best form this season, so they have identified Greenwood as a potential shock option for the January transfer window

Tottenham are ready to make a shock move for Mason Greenwood

As it currently stands, their top scorer across all competitions is Micky van de Ven with three goals.

New signing Mathys Tel has only managed to bag one goal so far this season, and Dominic Solanke, who was brought in in the summer of 2024 has only played twice, and is yet to find the net.

Now TEAMtalk are reporting that the north London side are lining up a shock move for ex-Manchester United forward Greenwood.

Greenwood was viewed as one of the most exciting talents from the Manchester United academy in recent years, but serious criminal allegations ultimately dropped by the Crown Prosecution Services, saw him move on.

He spent a season on loan at Getafe in Spain before Marseille signed him in the summer of 2024, where he has gone on to score 30 goals in 48 games.

Tottenham views him as someone who can provide an extra drive to their attack, with his pace and versatility noted.

TEAMtalk believe that Barcelona are currently leading the race to sign the 24-year-old, and they may plan to reunite him with former teammate Marcus Rashford.

Other European sides are also in the race to sign Greenwood, including Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid, whilst Saudi Pro League sides Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr are preparing lucrative offers. Greenwood however, is said to prefer staying in Europe and playing in the Champions League.

In FourFourTwo's view, the optics of bringing Greenwood back to England are not good for Tottenham. It is not a transfer that would go down well at Tottenham, let alone the rest of the Premier League. Manchester United are also owed a 50% sell-on fee should he leave Marseille.

Gary Neville claimed you could “see the fear” in referee Craig Pawson’s eyes after a step taken in Everton’s Premier League meeting with Tottenham Hotspur.

Thomas Frank’s side took the lead in under 20 minutes, when Rodrigo Bentancur shouldered a corner back into the six-yard box for Micky van de Ven to nod in from point-blank range.

The Toffees thought they’d netted an equaliser just over 5 minutes later when Jake O’Brien headed one in from a corner, before Pawson was called to the monitor to review a subjective offside.

Gary Neville spots “fear” following Craig Pawson’s tough decision process

The referee took his time reviewing the incident, with those at Stockley Park suggesting that Iliman Ndiaye had interfered with Guglielmo Vicario from an offside position.

Pawson agreed with his assistants and, under new protocols, had to relay the decision vocally over the public address system to the fans inside the Hill Dickinson Stadium, to a chorus of boos and jeers from the home support.

“Who would want to make that announcement in here?” Peter Drury posited.

“You can almost see the fear in the referee’s eyes,” Neville chuckled.

Pawson did indeed look like he’d rather have cracked on with the game than be forced into becoming a public speaker inside the newly-built 52,000-seater stadium, but Neville didn’t have too many problems with the call itself.

“What I would say, as a defensive team and with a defensive mindset,” the former Manchester United man continued, “[is that] the reason that these teams stay now and don’t put men on the post is to make sure that there are offside players.

“And he [Ndiaye] is very close to Vicario. I don’t think he’s ever going to save it, but again, it’s subjective, and the officials have made a decision.”

In FourFourTwo’s opinion, while the efforts to keep the fans in the stadium as informed as those at home is admirable, the system of having referees sheepishly explain their call to tens of thousands of furious fans is not an ideal solution.

As those who have experienced it in the ground will know, you usually already know the decision before the referee speaks and – certainly if it’s going against the home team – the rest of the official’s announcement is then drowned out by boos.

It’s questionable whether this new system is serving anyone, and we can’t imagine referees objecting too harshly, were it scrapped.

Monaco vs Spurs: Champions League preview

Winning one match and drawing the next became a pattern for Spurs in September and played out in its own way in their first two league matches.

Frank's first Champions League match was a 1-0 home match against Villarreal, after which they faced Bodo/Glimt in Bodo and came away with what was a creditable 2-2 draw after going 2-0 down.

Adi Hutter and Monaco also drew their second league phase match thanks to a last-minute penalty from former Spurs defender Eric Dier against Manchester City.

Dier joined Monaco on a free transfer in the summer after a season and a half with Harry Kane at Bayern Munich.

The 31-year-old spent a decade at Spurs after developing at Sporting CP as a youngster and is gearing up to face his former side after four wins in five to start the Ligue 1 season deteriorated into three matches without a win.

It's been a winless start for the Red and Whites in the Champions League too and Hutter will see Spurs at home as a tricky but assailable foe to put that right.

Spurs have a respectable record against Ligue 1 opposition but are dealing with some injury issues that will necessarily guide Frank's thinking.

Destiny Udogie pulled out before the loss to Villa but could be available. James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Radu Dragusin and Dominic Solanke are just a few of the players who won't be.

The north London side will get another crack at Ligue 1 opponents in a month's time, when they visit the Parc des Princes to take on European champions Paris Saint-Germain.

Monaco will be mindful that they follow this fixture with a pair of slippery away matches against Bodo/Glimt and Pafos before closing the group against Real Madrid and Juventus.

Hutter needs to put points on the board sooner rather than later or Monaco's Champions League adventure could be effectively over before January.

FourFourTwo's prediction

Monaco 1-2 Spurs

It took two top-class goals to breach Spurs at the weekend and Monaco might struggle to outscore Frank's boys.

Tottenham had been linked with a move to reunite brothers Archie and Harry Gray prior to the latter's most recent birthday.

The younger of the two siblings turned 17 at the beginning of October, at which point he was eligible to sign a first professional contract.

Archie, on the other hand, joined Spurs in the summer of 2024 following Leeds' failure to win promotion via the Championship play-offs, parting with his boyhood club for a reported £40 million fee after his first full season of senior football.

Tottenham Hotspur miss out on 17-year-old Leeds United star

Then, earlier this summer Spurs signed teenage forward and England youth international Oliver Boast from the Elland Road club, who will be due training compensation as opposed to a transfer fee, for the youngster's move.

Boast is understood to have left Leeds having deemed his pathway to senior football blocked by Gray's presence and first-team boss Daniel Farke's preference for the teenager.

Among Leeds fans, it was hoped the same scenario would not play out with regard to Harry Gray's future, the much-heralded jewel of the club's Thorp Arch academy.

Gray became the latest in a five-strong line of family members to represent the Leeds first-team after debuting in a 6-0 win over Stoke City at the end of last season.

The 17-year-old has now put pen to paper on a 'long-term' contract, according to Leeds, ending any speculation over his immediate future.

"Everyone at Leeds United would like to congratulate Harry on signing a first professional contract and we look forward to seeing his development over the coming seasons", a club statement read.

While Leeds fans will celebrate tying Gray down to a contract believed to run until the end of the 2027/28 season, Spurs can focus on a prodigious striking talent of their own in Luca Williams-Barnett.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa: Premier League preview

Thomas Frank has made an impressive start in charge of Spurs. As well as a win and a draw in the Champions League, the north London club have lost just one of their first seven games in the Premier League.

It's not so long ago that Villa would have been justifiably seen as a soft touch. Unai Emery's side could barely buy a goal in their first six matches in all competitions, never mind a win.

Since then, they've won four on the bounce in the Premier League and Europa League, but an domestic win away from home is still a hurdle they're yet to pass this season.

Spurs' home defeat by Bournemouth at the end of August feels like a long time ago and they're otherwise in very healthy nick.

Their first three league wins under Frank were each boosted by a clean sheet and Spurs have only failed to score once. They've scored two goals or more in all but two matches, a tally that won't be lost on Emery.

Despite the traditional collapse against Crystal Palace, Villa's defence has been the basis of any meagre positives from a season that started appallingly.

Villa's first two points came from goalless draws, their third from a 1-1 draw against a team that played with ten men for an hour. It's fair to say their attackers are still taking their time to really get going but the performances overall are on the up.

There have been six Premier League meetings of these teams at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium – three wins apiece, with Villa winning two of the last three but succumbing to a proper walloping last November.

In many ways, this fixture has become too close to call in recent years but it's also never drawn. The last time these teams drew at White Hart Lane was in February 2010. There's been a winner in each of the last 13 meetings.

But Villa will be eager to capitalise on another historical factor when they reach north London on Sunday. Emery's record against Frank is rather better than some other Villa managers against Brentford, so hope for the Villans springs eternal.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa: Expected line-ups

FourFourTwo's prediction

Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 Aston Villa

Villa have recovered some of their form but the foundations of the wins over Fulham and Burnley were still a little fragile.

Nottingham Forest are without a win since replacing Nuno Espirito Santo with Australian manager Ange Postecoglou.

Amid reports that owner Evangelos Marinakis is considering making a second managerial change of the season just seven games into Postecoglou's tenure, the Forest boss has spoken out on his future.

This weekend, the team host Chelsea in the early kick-off at the City Ground, live on TNT Sports.

Ange Postecoglou takes swipe at Tottenham Hotspur in fresh dig

Failure to win for an eighth successive match could spell the end for Postecoglou, just months on from his Europa League triumph and subsequent sacking by Tottenham Hotspur.

"I guess from my perspective I just don't fit, not here, just in general," the outspoken manager began during his pre-match press conference. "If you look at things through the prism that I am a failed manager who is lucky to get this job, I know you're smirking at me, but that's what's been said, then of course these first five weeks looks like this guy is under pressure. But there is an alternative story.

"I came to the Premier League two years ago and I took over at Tottenham, I was told by the chairman [Daniel Levy] that this club has to win a trophy. He said we've tried to bring winners in: Jose [Mourinho], Antonio Conte, and it hasn't worked. We need something different. I was slightly offended by that because I see myself as winner.

"I took over Spurs who finished eighth. Massive club, but no European football, and one that can't go two years without European football. We finished fifth in my first year and every time Harry Kane scores a goal [for Bayern after leaving Spurs] I go, 'I wish he stayed just one more year'. It would have been handy to have him after finishing fifth."

The 60-year-old won 47 of his 101 games in charge at Spurs but, crucially, also lost 39 times which proved costly.

Tottenham salvaged Champions League qualification by clinching the Europa League last season but teetered above the relegation zone for the majority of the campaign, which the club's hierarchy deemed unacceptable, even if the Aussie ended the club's 17-year trophy drought.

"Somehow that [first] year [at Spurs] has disappeared from the record books. It was even used as a reason for me losing my job because even Tottenham decided to exclude the first ten games. Yet the first ten games here [at Forest] are important apparently.

"But anyway, we finished fifth. I got them back into European football, which is where a club like Tottenham should be. Then I was in [post-season] meetings and was told we need a trophy because it will mean everything to the football club. That's fine.

"We win a trophy. We shed the tag of being 'Spursy'. [We get] Champions League football, which brings some rewards and the opportunity to bring greater players. But all I have heard since I finished at Tottenham is that we finished 17th last year.

"So if you look at it through the prism of finishing 17th, then I am a failed manager who is lucky to get another opportunity. But again, if I have to explain why we finished 17th, it's really basic. It doesn't have to be too in-depth.

The international break is a time when managers will cross their fingers and hope their star players come back from their travels unscathed.

And this issue has been somewhat exacerbated during the current break, given the fact that the qualification campaign for the 2026 World Cup is entering the final straight. With 48 teams qualifying for next summer’s expanded tournament, more teams than ever are fighting for a place, which in turn means more players are facing crucial international fixtures over the current break.

The CAF qualification campaign reaches its climax this month, with just the final matches of the group stage taking place, which has meant a number of Premier League stars have been in action.

Tottenham midfielder suffers another setback

One of these players was Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma, who has missed the start of Spurs’ season with a knee injury, but has been stepping up his recovery of late and was able to be called up by Mali, who were looking to qualify from CAF Group I.

Bissouma was deemed fit enough to make his first appearances of the 2025/26 campaign on Sunday when Mali hosted Madagascar and came on as a second-half substitute in the 66th minute with his side 3-0 up.

However, just six minutes after his introduction, the 29-year-old was tackled by an opposition player after intercepting the ball and hit the turf.

Bissouma was seen holding his left ankle and beating the ground out of frustration with his other hand as medical staff came onto the pitch to tend to him.

He then pulled his shirt over his head as his team-mates came to console him before he was taken off on a stretcher.

While the extent of this latest injury setback is not yet known, the former Brighton man has endured a frustrating time of late, with a knee injury seemingly denting his chances of a move away from Spurs in the summer.

Bissouma - who is valued at €25million by Transfermarkt - is now into the final year of his contract and was left out Spurs’ Champions League squad for the league phase of the competiton.

He was also omitted from Thomas Frank’s UEFA Super Cup squad due to persistant lateness and this most recent setback means his Spurs career very much remains in limbo.

International superstars Lamine Yamal and Kylian Mbappe are both in the top four dribblers in Europe’s top five leagues but the front-running front-runner is making his presence felt in England, not Spain.

Barcelona teenager Yamal has completed the fourth-highest number of successful dribbles, with Real Madrid talisman Mbappe second on the list.

Yamal’s 21 dribbles and Mbappe’s 30 are split by the 22 successful dribbles by Real Sociedad’s Ander Barrenetxea but all three are looking up at the number of attempts and completions by the continent’s runaway runner.

The best dribbler in Europe?

Analysis for the Premier League by Adrian Clarke has revealed that new Tottenham Hotspur signing Mohammed Kudus has produced 30 successful take-ons in 2025-26, more than any other player in the Premier League, Serie A, La Liga, Germany’s Bundesliga and Ligue 1 in France.

Noting that Kudus has primarily attacked defenders on Spurs’ right flank since moving from West Ham United in the summer transfer window, Clarke writes: “In Premier League terms, Kudus' 30 successful dribbles put him 11 ahead of his nearest rival, Brighton & Hove Albion's Yankuba Minteh (19).”

Regular observers of Kudus throughout his career will know that this season is no fluke in dribbling terms.

The Ghana international was a nuisance for defenders while playing for Danish Superliga side Nordsjaelland, though he was often deployed more centrally in what was at the time an incredibly fluid set-up.

After joining Ajax, he was the Eredivisie’s top take-on man in 2022-23 before leading the Premier League and Europe’s top five leagues as a West Ham player in 2023-24.

He was second in the Premier League behind Manchester City winger Jeremy Doku (and both were miles behind Yamal) last season but has started life at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as he means to go on, making sure to contribute with his final ball too.

Only Jack Grealish of Everton has produced more goal-creating actions than Kudus this season, with the Ghanaian level on five in total with Riccardo Calafiori, Antoine Semenyo and Spurs teammate Pape Matar Sarr.

Kudus and Grealish top the Premier League assist rankings with four, while no player has attempted more crosses than Kudus. Pedro Porro, also of Spurs, is second in the Premier League in that category.

Dribbling isn’t everything. Mbappe has scored nine goals in La Liga this season and Yamal, while Kudus has one more assist so far, is the continental leader for assists per 90 minutes.

“Head coach Thomas Frank has encouraged Kudus to express himself, and the talented winger has certainly been fun to watch, showing good degrees of confidence,” offers Clarke.
