Both Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur head into Tuesday night’s Premier League meeting desperate for a win to end an alarming slide in results.
Spurs are yet to win a home game in 2026 and were beaten at Old Trafford by Michael Carrick’s resurgent Manchester United on Saturday lunchtime. To compound matters from that defeat, they lost the services of both Cristian Romero and Destiny Udogie through suspension and injury issues respectively.
Newcastle United, meanwhile, were beaten at home by Brentford to conclude a damaging week for Eddie Howe and his team. Three defeats in a row, against Liverpool, Manchester City and then the Bees resulted in them being dumped out of the Carabao Cup and ending the weekend in the bottom half of the Premier League table.
A win, therefore, is vital for both sides on Tuesday night. However, both managers have a number of injury concerns to deal with ahead of naming their teams at 6:15pm on Tuesday evening.
Here, we take a look at the latest injury news from both camps ahead of Newcastle United’s clash with Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League.
Tottenham Hotspur injury and suspension news v Newcastle United

Rodrigo Bentancur - out
Bentancur will not feature against the Magpies on Tuesday night as he remains sidelined with a thigh injury.
