  "account": "Newcastle United looks to secure their first league win of the season when they travel to North London to face Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday, 29 August 2026. The match is set to kick off at 17:30. Newcastle United have announced their predicted starting lineup, with goalkeeper Lukas Horníček taking over the gloves. In defense, Dedic, Thiaw, Botman, and Hall are expected to form a solid back four, with Gonzalez, Miley, Elanga, Wissa, and Barnes vying for midfield and attack positions. However, some key players are set to miss the crucial fixture. Dan Burn remains sidelined with ankle ligament damage, while Joelinton and Tino Livramento are out with groin and calf injuries respectively. William Osula is still nursing a foot injury and is currently unavailable. New signing Bazoumana Toure, who scored against West Brom despite feeling some pain, is expected to be fit for Saturday. Additionally, Nico Gonzalez, unveiled as a £50 million signing from Manchester City before the West Brom win, could make his Newcastle debut, potentially displacing Lewis Miley or Sean Steur. Anthony Elanga is likely to take priority over Jacob Murphy on the right wing, while Harvey Barnes and Toure will compete for the left wing spot.",
