Tottenham Hotspur are looking to get a rare point or three at Newcastle United in the Premier League on Tuesday evening.

Spurs need to get out of their current rut which has brought just three wins in the past 13 matches under Thomas Frank, including Saturday's 2-1 derby defeat at home against Fulham. However, the north London outfit travel to an in-form Magpies side with seven wins from nine matches under Eddie Howe and St James' Park has not been a happy hunting ground for Tottenham in recent seasons.

Frank needs to turn results around though with an increasingly strained relationship with a disgruntled fanbase. The supporters have been booing the team during recent home games and targeted goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario after his early mistake on Saturday.
