Tottenham take on Bayern Munich at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Champions League group stages tonight.
Mauricio Pochettino has made some changes from the side that beat Southampton in the Premier League at the weekend with Danny Rose recalled to start at left-back meaning Ben Davies drops to the bench.
Serge Aurier keeps his place at right-back despite being sent off on Saturday afternoon while Jan Vertonghen lines-up alongside Toby Alderweireld at the heart of the Tottenham back four. Therefore, Davinson Sanchez has to settle for a place among the substitutes.
Dele Alli is recalled in the Spurs attack with Heung-min Son supporting Harry Kane so Lucas Moura, Christian Eriksen and Erik Lamela must all settle for places on the bench this evening.
Harry Winks once again starts in the holding role with Tanguy Ndombele and Moussa Sissoko keeps their places in the Tottenham midfield so Eric Dier is once again named among the subs.
As for Bayern Munich, Kingsley Coman, Philippe Coutinho and Serge Gnabry start in attack and they’ll support Robert Lewandowski in the final third of the pitch.
Here are the confirmed line-ups:
Tottenham
Lloris, Aurier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose, Winks, Ndombele, Sissoko, Dele, Son, Kane.
