Early team news

With Fraser Forster out sick after catching a bug that’s infilitrated the Tottenham camp, Ange Postecoglou is expected to give 25-year-old goalkeeper Brandon Austin his first senior start in English football after five years at the club.

A glum Ange revealed yesterday that Destiny Udogie is expected to be out for at least six weeks with a hamstring injury and the Spurs full-back joins a long list of lame and halt in the Tottenham treatment room.

The names of Guiglielmo Vicario, Mikey Moore, Richarlison, Micky van de Ven, Ben Davies, Cristian Romero and Wilson Odobert all currently feature on it, while Djed Spence and Rodrigo Bentancur miss out today through suspension.

Newcastle are without Fabian Schar, who joins Spence and Bentancur on the Naughty Step, while Nick Pope, Callum Wilson, Jamaal Lascelles and Emil Krafth all remain sidelined with injury. Sven Botman is expected to undergo a late fitness test and could make his first appearance for Newcastle since last March after recovering from a serious knee injury.

Premier League: Tottenham v Newcastle

Riding high in fifth place on the back of four consecutive Premier League wins, Newcastle arrive in London as the favourites to make it five on the spin against out-of-sorts hosts who have a lengthy injury list and are without a win in their past three games, two of which have been lost.

Tottenham Hotspur drew with Wolves last time out, while Newcastle’s most recent outing saw them humble Manchester United on their own turf at Old Trafford as they kept their fourth consecutive clean sheet in the top flight. Kick-off in North London is at 12.30pm (GMT) but stay tuned in the meantime for team news and build-up.
