Tottenham travel to Newcastle United in the Premier League on Sunday looking to consign their previous two visits to history.

Spurs have suffered heavy defeats in each of their past two encounters at St James Park and they will go there once more under Ange Postecoglou looking to put that right. They will have to do it without both of their strikers as new £65million signing Dominic Solanke is not ready to return just yet after his ankle injury, while Richarlison has suffered a muscle injury to continue his fragmented tenure in a Spurs shirt.

The Tottenham boss does have the returning Rodrigo Bentancur to call upon in the midfield after the Uruguayan cleared the required time out through the concussion protocol after his collision at Leicester.

Postecoglou has plenty of decisions to make with Dejan Kulusevski impressing in a deeper role in the big win against Everton and Wilson Odobert making an eye-catching debut at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Here's the team we reckon the Australian will select as Spurs take on Eddie Howe's side.
