AMR) Erik Lamela
Could take the place of Andros Townsend on the right-hand side of midfield after the England man produced an ineffective display against Aston Villa last week.
Time is running out for the Argentina international to prove he is worth the hefty price tag, and a good performance against the Magpies could set him on his way to doing so.
AML) Christian Eriksen
The Dane has tailed off in recent months – in fact his last goal came at the end of January – and Spurs desperately need him to be firing again.
ST) Roberto Soldado
Another player who is running out of time to impress for Spurs. But the fact is they need goals, and Soldado has already found the back of the net against the Magpies this season.
