The fight for Champions League places sees Spurs head to Newcastle

(PA)

Follow live coverage as Newcastle United face Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League today.

In the battle for the top four and a Champions League spot for next term, this fixture could prove pivotal with the teams fourth and fifth respectively ahead of kick-off. Barring an absolute drubbing for the hosts that’s how they’ll finish the day too, but Spurs will want to make up ground with a win given the Magpies have a game in hand still.

Defeat last time out for Eddie Howe’s side came in the shape of a surprise 3-0 beating at Aston Villa, while Spurs again showed their fragility with a 3-2 home loss to Bournemouth.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:
