Tottenham will look to continue their title push when they take on Norwich City at Carrow Road on Tuesday night. Here is the side we think Mauricio Pochettino will select for the game:
Goalkeeper: Hugo Lloris is expected to get a recall after being rested for the FA Cup win over Colchester with Michel Vorm dropping to the bench.
Defence: Jan Vertonghen has been ruled out for the foreseeable future after suffering a knee injury during last weeks win at Crystal Palace so Kevin Wimmer should once again start alongside Toby Alderweireld at the back.
Kyle Walker could return at right-back while Danny Rose is set for a recall after being rested at the weekend with Kieran Trippier and Ben Davies dropping out.
Midfield: Pochettino is expected to make changes to his midfield with first team regular Eric Dier restored to his usual central midfield role after playing centre-back on Saturday while Mousa Dembele should come back in to the side after being left on the bench against Colchester.
Attack: Dele Alli is almost certain to get a recall which could see Nacer Chadli miss out despite the Belgian international scoring twice at the weekend. Christian Eriksen and Erik Lamela should keep their places in attack and continue to support Harry Kane.
Here is how I think we’ll see Spurs line-up:
What do you think? What line-up would you like to see start?

Chadli is on fire, so he will have to play. Lamela was already dropped from the league side, the last couple of games, so he won’t be playing. Has wasted many chances and his form has dropped a bit.

Another dishonest headline. Pochettino has not made 6 changes he hasn’t selected the team yet. You predict Pochettino will make 6 changes in an entirely different headline.

Bang on Tim. We’re awash with ambiguous headlines, so dishonest ones are outright infuriating. I just went on to an article about Lloris being poached from Spurs and found it was about ten months old! So we’re getting ancient history as well as lies and ambiguity. I know we’re treated as click bait by most feature writers but half of them can’t spell or use grammar and punctuation properly. Next up, Messi to Wrexham in player swap just before the transfer window closes?
