Despite losing their head coach and three of their most influential players, Newcastle 2.0 provided grounds for fan optimism in their season-opener, despite proving unable to close out the win against Liverpool.Having sent the expectations of their supporters soaring sky-high with a high profile summer trolley-dash that’s been the envy of most of their rivals, Spurs promptly brought them crashing back to earth with a resounding thud in miserable defeat at Brentford. While De Zerbi’s side went some way towards redeeming themselves with a midweek Carabao Cup thrashing of a second string Charlton side, much better will be expected of them in their first home league game of the season, against visitors who have won on their past two visits to this particular corner of North London. Kick-off in this intriguing fixture is at 5.30pm (BST) but we’ll have team news and build-up in the meantime.The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium hosts today’s match between Spurs and Newcastle United.
