Tottenham confirmed team vs Bournemouth: Skipp one of six changes, Dier benched, Romero absent

Antonio Conte has made six changes to his Tottenham team for this afternoon's Premier League clash against Bournemouth. Without a win in their last three games in all competitions, it is imperative that Spurs return to winning ways with others closing in on them in the top-four race.

Dubbing Tuesday's Champions League encounter against Marseille as a "final" with the Lilywhites needing a point to progress to the knockout phase, Spurs first of all have to do the business at the Vitality Stadium before attention can fully turn to the showdown in the south of France. With the European tie in mind, Conte has tweaked his team and given some of his regulars a breather at Bournemouth.

Cristian Romero misses out on the squad altogether as Davinson Sanchez comes into the side in his place. Clement Lenglet also returns in the backline and swaps with Eric Dier as the England international is given a rare breather., while Emerson Royal and Ryan Sessegnon replace Matt Doherty and Ivan Perisic in the wing-back positions.
