Newcastle v Tottenham live stream: Kick-off time, team news and how to follow

The Magpies have enjoyed a momentous international break in which their £305million club takeover was pushed through making Amanda Staveley's PIF-backed club the richest in world football.

Matters in the boardroom will be put to one side on Sunday as attention turns to taking on Spurs.

Newcastle are without a win so far this season and will be desperate to get their first three points on the board.

Given Tottenham's indifferent start to the campaign, Nuno Espirito Santo will also be determined to make it back-to-back wins in the Premier League following their win over Aston Villa two weeks ago.

Newcastle v Tottenham: Team news

The Magpies could be boosted by the comeback of Callum Wilson.

The striker has been out of action since August but could be a contender to return to the squad ahead of Sunday's contest.

Jonjo Shelvey will be back in contention after completing his injury return for Newcastle's under-23s in midweek, while Jamaal Lascelles and Joe Willock may also be back.

Tottenham could be without Ben Davies with the full-back withdrawing from international duty with Wales due to illness.

Providing that there are no fresh injury blows, Spurs' only other absentees will be Stephen Bergwijn and Ryan Sessegnon.
