Tottenham are grappling with a host of injury woes. Ben Davis, Destiny Udogie, Cristian Romero, Yves Bissouma, Kota Takai, Radu Dragusin, Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison and Dominic Solanke all continue to be long-term absentees for the Lilywhites.
For Eddie Howe's side, Joelinton made a comeback to the starting line-up against Fulham at the weekend, stepping in for Jacob Ramsey in the team that triumphed over Benfica in the Champions League last week. Yoane Wissa is still waiting to make his debut for the Magpies after a knee injury prevented him from making his first appearance in black-and-white following his transfer from Brentford.
Lewis Hall and Valentino Livramento are also both sidelined, but Eddie Howe will be keen to see them return to the squad before the next international break.
