Newcastle United face Tottenham Hotspur in a Premier League fixture this Saturday, August 29, with kick-off scheduled for 12:30 p.m. ET at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The match will be broadcast across NBC, Peacock, and Universo in the United States, as reported by the outlet www.google.com. This is a key early-season test for Eddie Howe's side, who currently sit 11th in the Premier League table with one point from their opening game.
The Magpies head to London after a dramatic 2-2 draw at home to Liverpool last time out, where a late Dominik Szoboszlai penalty denied them all three points. That result leaves Newcastle with two goals scored and two conceded, giving them a zero goal difference as they prepare for this weekend's challenge. They are already two points behind early leaders Brighton in the nascent 2026-27 title race.
