The game has opened up big time. End to end.

Newcastle make two more changes in response to Crystal Palace's equaliser.

Joelinton is coming off along with goalscorer William Osula.

Eddie Howe throws on Jacob Ramsey and Nick Woltemade as his side search for a late winner.

Youri Tielemans is unmarked as he latches onto Ollie Watkins ball across the box, but he takes too many touches.

His shot is blocked and Ian Maatsen's shot is saved.

That was a really good opening for Villa.

There's a chance that Nordi Mukiele goal ends up going down as a Micky van de Ven own goal but we'll see.

Jean-Philippe Mateta ended a three-month goal drought in Crystal Palace's 3-0 win against Fiorentina in the Conference League on Thursday.

His strike today is his first Premier League goal since 1 January, when he netted against Fulham.

Sunderland goalscorer Nordi Mukiele and Chris Rigg are replaced by Chemsdine Talbi and Trai Hume.

Ben: What on earth have Newcastle spent the last three weeks doing - because it clearly has had nothing to do with football.

A second change of the day sees Nicolas Dominguez replace Morgan Gibbs-White, who passes the captain's armband over to Chris Wood.

It is the fear factor for Tottenham. It was a case of 'if in doubt panic' defensively there, everyone was slashing at the ball. They are a goal down and they are not really creating much.

A chance for Sunderland to double their lead as Noah Sadiki controls a long ball and lays it off for Chris Rigg, whose first-time effort is blocked.

A less than convincing punch from Antonin Kinsky keeps Spurs under some pressure. The Czech has played fairly well today though, coming off his line a few things to deal with situations.

Robin Roefs has made five saves, his most in a Premier League game since 8 November against Arsenal.

Villa haven't had a chance it what feels like forever, and then all of a sudden Ollie Watkins sweeps over the crossbar from a clever cut-back.

That would have sent a message to England boss Thomas Tuchel wouldn't it.

As things stand Tottenham are two points off safety with six matches to go. No games in hand.

Spurs have to push forward and take chances, and they might even have to go man to man, which is a dangerous thing to do. That is going to leave gaps at the back. Sunderland have a number of players that when those gaps open up they become better players, particularly the two wide men.

Spurs striker Dominic Solanke has a glancing header saved by Robin Roefs. Only their second chance of this half.

Triple change for Villa.

Douglas Luiz, Ian Maatsen and Emiliano Buendia replace Lucas Digne, Morgan Rogers and Ross Barkley.

Yeremy Pino is off and Daichi Kamada is on for Oliver Glasner's Crystal Palace with 15 minutes to go.

Good defending by Spurs' Destiny Udogie to nudge Noah Sadiki on the edge of the box and deny him a chance to shoot.
