And it's Nacer Chadli who is on for Erik Lamela. The Argentine has found it a bit tougher than in the game against Monaco on Thursday, where he grabbed a hat-trick. 

As it stands, it's as you were. Spurs stay fifth in the Premier League and Newcastle will remain in the bottom three. 

A missed opportunity? Manchester United fans will be happy. But here comes a Spurs change.

Aleksandar Mitrovic is causing a bit of bother in the Spurs defence, which is good for the visitors. He's certainly got some spark and has already been sent off this season. Meanwhile Son Heung-min fires over for the hosts. 

A bit nervous at White Hart Lane all of a sudden. Newcastle boss Steve McClaren will fancy this now but maybe a point is a good result for his team?

There are definitely signs that Newcastle can get out of their slump. Ayoze Perez weaves his way into the box, shapes to shoot but as he tries to poke the ball goalwards he is beaten to it by Jan Vertonghen and the Newcastle substitute earns a yellow card.

Could it be worse for Spurs? Moussa Sissoko is racing clear down the right but his low cross is cleared by Toby Alderweireld. There were Newcastle men in the box, too. 

That's taken the sting out of the game now. Mauricio Pochettino is prowling the touchline. As it stands, Spurs are heading for a third consecutive draw.

"What'll happen is we'll get a grandstand finish and we'll all wonder why it didn't all get started earlier.

"Hugo Lloris seemed to divert the ball away from his own defender when saving the initial shot - just like Rob Elliot for Tottenham's goal, the keeper took it away from his own player.

"Two goals from two dead ball situations is about right, because we haven't seen an awful lot of chances from open play."

Wow, what an impact from Aleksandar Mitrovic, who scores his third goal of the season. Game on. 

Christain Eriksen tests Rob Elliot with another shot which the newcastle goalkeeper is equal to. Down the other end, Danny Rose is penalised for a handball as he blocks Daryl Janmaat's cross and is booked. 

Son Heung-min has slotted into the number 10 position for Spurs I think, meaning Dele Alli will drop back to support Eric Dier in the deeper lying midfield role. 

Aleksandar Mitrovic replaces Papiss Cisse. 

Spurs win a free-kick deep on the left side, Christian Eriksen is over it and rather than crossing it, he shoots but Rob Elliot dives down to gather at his near post. 

Tom Carroll goes into the book and it's his last action as Son Heung-min comes on to replace him. A positive step by Mauricio Pochettino.

But first Newcastle must defend, which they do well, yet when Moussa Sissoko is released down the right his cross is too close to Hugo Lloris. 

Steve McClaren's side are showing a few signs of getting back into this.

Siem de Jong is replaced by Ayoze Perez. An attacking change by Newcastle. He will offer more pace up front.
