Eddie Howe has a near full strength Newcastle United squad available to face Tottenham Hotspur. Allan Saint-Maximin and Emil Krafth are among the absentees who will miss the clash with Spurs at St. James' Park this weekend, while Ryan Fraser continues to train with the Under-21s side having been dropped from the first-team set-up.
The Magpies can strengthen their grip on the Champions League places with a win over Spurs and can create a six point buffer to their rivals in fifth place. Howe's side have a game in hand and could move nine points clear of Spurs with a win in that game.
Despite a disappointing defeat to Aston Villa last time out, the Toon are in a good place heading into the final eight games of the Premier League campaign.
