Tottenham return to Premier League action following the international break at Newcastle this afternoon.

Jose Mourinho’s side now sit in seventh place, with aspirations of making a run into the top four during the final weeks of the season.

Spurs also have a Carabao Cup final to look forward to later this month, but things have been far from plain sailing in north London, with a disastrous Europa League exit and Premier League derby defeat still fresh in the memory.

Newcastle, meanwhile, are in the midst of a relegation battle heading into the business end of the season.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Newcastle vs Tottenham is scheduled for a 2:05pm BST kick-off today - Sunday, April 4, 2021.

The game will be played behind closed doors at St James’ Park because of current coronavirus restrictions.
