Newcastle can overtake Tottenham and potentially move inside the top half of the Premier League with victory at home to Spurs on Tuesday.
The Magpies earned successive league wins with a 4-1 victory at Everton on Saturday, including goals in either half by Malick Thiaw.
Spurs have taken one point from their last four league games following their 2-1 home defeat three days ago by Fulham, who went 2-0 ahead after six minutes.
