Newcastle has no new injury worries but is still short on several key players.

Sven Botman is available for selection after scoring in the recent loss to Brentford, and Eddie Howe may make changes to rejuvenate his struggling team.
Form
Tottenham Hotspur
Spurs have struggled at home lately. After winning four of their first five home matches, they have only secured four wins in their last 26 games. Tottenham has not won in their last 11 mid-week Premier League matches, marking their longest such skid in the league’s history. Dominic Solanke, however, has been in good form, netting 13 goals in his last 19 home starts.
Newcastle United
The Magpies generally perform well in mid-week fixtures. They have won six of their last eight mid-week Premier League matches, averaging 2.8 goals per game in these matches. Newcastle has prevailed in five of their last seven clashes against Spurs, but their defense was weak, allowing three goals to Brentford last weekend.
