Tottenham 0-0 Newcastle – Premier League: Live score, team news and updates as Alexander Isak wastes golden opportunity to put Eddie Howe’s side ahead

Follow Mail Sport’s live blog for the latest score, team news and updates as Tottenham Hotspur host Newcastle in the Premier League.

Isak squanders open net!

Anthony Gordon catapulted down the left flank, got near the goal-line, and squared it to Isak, but it bobbled off the attacker’s boot.

He had an empty net!

You get a split second to react but have to be doing better than that.

Bruno Guimaraes shot

Bruno received the ball on the edge of the area but swung at it wildly and it was always rising and curling away from goal. He went for power but could have taken a moment to compose himself in space.

Richarlison's attacking adventures

Bruno Guimaraes did well to stifle Richarlison on the edge of the box there. The Tottenham man could have jinked into space but the Brazilian materialised in the nick of time.

A minute later, Richarlison blasts a shot over from the left side of the box, winning a corner after a deflection.

Anthony Gordon sloppy

Spurs have had hold of the ball in the opening exchanges, but there was a moment where Anthony Gordon intercepted on the edge of the area and had the chance to play in Alexander Isak, but it was wayward. Could have had his striker through there.

Kick-off!

Pre-game thoughts from Ange and Eddie

The players are out!

Signs of the cross, little jumps, high-fives with mascots… the 22 players kicking off this titanic war of the wounded are out.

What injuries?

If you’d have asked Jamaal Lascelles and Son Heung-Min in midweek if they were going to play this evening, they wouldn’t have been sure. But here they are. In the house and ready to battle.

Preparations in full swing for Tottenham

A big day for Ange Postecoglou

He might have won three Manager of the Month awards, but Ange Postecoglou is now winless in five.

If Tottenham lose today, they will fall behind Newcastle.

It’s a battle of two wounded armies today, as both sides are missing critical players, but Postecoglou knows that he needs to reverse Spurs’ recent trend in case the top four evaporate from view.

CRAIG HOPE: Surely Newcastle can't leave St James' Park?

On Monday, supporters were sent a questionnaire which floated the idea of Newcastle United leaving St James’ Park. Ever since, it has been the talk of Tyneside.

As Craig Hope, there are many unique aspects to St James’ Park – not least its central location. Eddie Howe pointed out just as much, calling it the ‘heartbeat’ of the North East powerhouse city.

Richarlison starts!

Just a quick review of the line-ups named by the managers.

RIcharlison is back in the starting 11 fir Tottenham for the firsttime since October, joining Pape Matar Sarr as Giovani Lo Celso and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg drop out.
