Meanwhile Nuno Espirito Santo sticks to the same starting XI that beat Aston Villa last time out, with Kane and Son linking up once again in attack, alongside Lucas and Ndombele.

Bruce has made two changes to his starting line-up, with Lascelles and Wilson coming into the side and they have replaced Fernandez and Miguel Almiron.

TOTTENHAM SUBS: Bryan Gil, Davinson Sanchez, Pierluigi Gollini, Japhet Tanganga, Ben Davies, Giovani Lo Celso, Harry Winks, Dele Alli, Steven Bergwijn.

Meanwhile Tottenham ended their three-game losing streak last time out, having suffered defeats against Crystal Palace, Chelsea and Arsenal. They managed to beat Aston Villa 2-1 two weeks ago and they sit 10th in the table.

The takeover of Newcastle was finally completed over the international break and with Mike Ashley’s reign now over, it has got the supporters extremely excited about the future of the club. However, it has led to rumours over Steve Bruce’s future as the manager, with several big names linked to the top job. The new owners will be keen to see their side pick up their first victory of the season today, as they suffered a 2-1 defeat against Wolves last time out, to leave them 18th in the table, with just three points so far.
