Predicted XI: Tottenham vs Newcastle

As Newcastle fans prepared for their team’s crucial home clash against Liverpool last weekend, Steve McClaren strung multiple surprises upon them by dropping Ayoze Perez and starting Siem de Jong.

The Geordie faithful were by no means impressed with the former England manager’s team selection, but in the end, it worked relatively well as the Magpies claimed a surprise 2-0 victory against Jurgen Klopp’s side.

The big question ahead of Sunday’s upcoming match away to Spurs is – will McClaren make any changes to the side that heroically overcame Liverpool?

Here’s what we think he’ll go for. The formation is 4-4-1-1.
