- Tottenham claim sixth straight away win in the Premier League.
Well that is all we have time for on this particularly live blog. But we have coverage of the five Premier League 3pm kick-offs here, so head that way to keep abreast of all the goals.
Full time: Huddersfield 0-4 Tottenham
A sixth win in a row on the road in the Premier League; Tottenham are turning into the away day specialists. Harry Kane was at the epicentre again with two goals, with Ben Davies scoring one and setting up another for Mousa Sissoko in added time.
The result is a thump down to earth for Huddersfield, but they will go into clashes with Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City all the wiser. Nine points from seven games represents a good start nonetheless.
Half time: Huddersfield 0-3 Tottenham
A half to remember for Harry Kane and Spurs. Two goals for the Premier League's leading marksman and Spurs. He had two and added to Ben Davies' simple finish the visitors are heading for victory. Huddersfield have offered plenty of heart but have not been able to keep pace with their opponents.
GOAL! Huddersfield 0-3 Tottenham (Harry Kane)
This is getting silly now. Spurs are three up and Harry Kane at the centre of things once again. He turns onto his left foot and though he is 25 yards he curls a beauty into the far corner beyond Lossl. The best number nine in Europe right now? Little doubt about it I am afraid.
Today might be the first time since 1972 that Huddersfield and Tottenham have met in the top flight, but Harry Kane is no stranger of the Terriers.
During one of his many loan spells away from north London, Kane scored one and was sent off for Leyton Orient in a game in 2011. You can watch his goal and his only dismissal in his career, below.
Less than half an hour away from getting some team news ahead of kick-off at the John Smith's Stadium, but how might both sides line up?
Huddersfield have no fresh injury concerns ahead of the visit of Spurs. Steve Mounie and midfielder Danny Williams remain out with long term issues.
Tottenham are set to welcome back Christian Eriksen after he missed the win at APOEL in the Champions League. Dele Alli and Jan Vertonghen are also back after European bans.
Tottenham may not have cured their Wembley blues, in the Premier League at least, but away from home they look every shade a contender for the title. Two wins on the road at West Ham and APOEL this week have helped emphasise that and today they go in search of a fourth straight away win of the campaign.
In their way are a Huddersfield team who have yet to lose on their own patch since returning to the top flight but are four without as win in all competitions after an impressive start to the campaign. A clean today meanwhile would break a top flight record for a newly-promoted club - which is no mean feat.
All the build-up and team news ahead of Huddersfield vs Tottenham on the way ahead of the 12:30pm kick-off.
