Tottenham confirmed team vs Aston Villa: Conte keeps Sergio Reguilon and Ryan Sessegnon out

Antonio Conte has named an unchanged Tottenham Hotspur team to face Aston Villa in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

Spurs make the trip to Villa looking to finish the weekend in fourth place again with Arsenal trailing 2-0 at home against Brighton as the Tottenham team was announced. Conte goes into the game with all but two of his players available to play with only Oliver Skipp still out following a setback in his recovery from his pelvic problem, while Japhet Tanganga will be out until pre-season following knee injury.

Ryan Sessegnon and Sergio Reguilon return to the squad following their respective hamstring and knee injuries but both start the game on the bench. Matt Doherty, who switched sides to the left last weekend and scored against Newcastle, remains on that flank while Emerson Royal, who also scored on Sunday, keeps his place on the right.

Lloris; Romero, Dier, Davies; Emerson, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Doherty; Kulusevski, Kane, Son. Subs: Gollini, Rodon, Sanchez, Reguilon, Sessegnon, White, Winks, Lucas, Bergwijn.
