Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are back in Premier League action today as they lock horns in North London.

Spurs have now gone five games without a win and have bizarrely taken the lead in all five of them.

Ange Postecoglou will be keen to get back on track soon but a visit from Newcastle United isn’t exactly ideal.

Guglielmo Vicario starts in goal today with Cristian Romero and Ben Davies starting as the centre backs.

Pedro Porro and Destiny Udogie feature as the full backs with Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr in midfield.

Dejan Kulusevski will play as the number 10 with Richarlison and Brennan Johnson flanking Son Heung-min in attack.

That means Giovani Lo Celso drops to the bench, joining Fraser Forster, Emerson Royal, Alfie Dorrington, Oliver Skipp, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Jamie Donley, Bryan Gil and Alejo Veliz.

Newcastle go with Martin Dubravka in goal with Nick Pope out of action through injury.

Fabian Schar and Jamaal Lascelles continue their partnership in defence with Valentino Livramento and former Tottenham man Kieran Trippier in the full back positions.

Teenager Lewis Miley starts in midfield again, joining Bruno Guimaraes and Joelinton in the Newcastle engine room.

Alexander Isak starts up top with support from Miguel Almiron and Anthony Gordon out wide.

Callum Wilson is on the bench, alongside Loris Karius, Mark Gillespie, Paul Dummett, Matt Ritchie, Emil Krafth, Lewis Hall, Sean Longstaff and Alex Murphy.
