EDDIE HOWE has named an unchanged starting side for Newcastle United's Premier League game at Tottenham.

However, Sean Longstaff and Callum Wilson have been passed fit to return to the squad at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Longstaff has recovered from the ankle injury he suffered at Bournemouth, while Wilson has shaken off the hamstring issue that forced him off at half-time during the Champions League away defeat to Borussia Dortmund.

Neither player has been deemed fit enough to start today, but their return to the matchday squad is nevertheless a boost for a team that looked like it was running on empty in the closing stages of Thursday's defeat at Everton.

The same starting XI have to go again in north London though, with Lewis Miley once again selected in midfield alongside Bruno Guimaraes and Joelinton.

Jamaal Lascelles has been passed fit to start despite suffering a knock in the dying seconds of Thursday's defeat at Goodison Park.
