Spurs looking to follow up rout of Everton in the Premier League
Tottenham head to Newcastle in the last round of Premier League fixtures before the first international break of the season.
Spurs got their season up and running last time out, running out 4-0 winners over an abject Everton side.
It raises hope about the season ahead, particularly after a disappointing opener at Leicester in which they wasted a number of chances before drawing 1-1.
Thrashed at St James’ Park last season, Spurs could make a statement by inflicting some revenge on Eddie Howe’s side.
