Team News: Fabricio Coloccini returns from suspension for Newcastle United

Fabricio Coloccini returns to the Newcastle United starting lineup following a three-match suspension in one of two changes for their match against Tottenham Hotspur.

Newcastle United captain Fabricio Coloccini has returned to the starting lineup for his side's clash against Tottenham Hotspur following three games out due to a suspension.

The Argentine is one of two changes to the Magpies' side from their 2-0 defeat against Liverpool as Yoan Gouffran also comes back into the team, with Gabriel Obertan dropping to the bench and Moussa Sissoko beginning his two-game ban.

Jan Vertonghen, Paulinho and Erik Lamela come into the lineup at the expense of Vlad Chiriches, Ryan Mason and Andros Townsend.
