Tottenham have made four changes to their starting XI for tonight’s trip to Manchester City.
Dejan Kulusevski makes his first start for Spurs at the Etihad in place of Lucas Moura, while the fit-again Eric Dier replaces Davinson Sanchez, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is preferred to Harry Winks and Emerson Royal gets the nod over Matt Doherty.
Antonio Conte confirmed he will be without one unnamed player who has tested positive for Covid, while defender Japhet Tanganga is out through injury.
Ryan Sessegnon, who was hooked after just half an hour of the dismal defeat to Wolves last time out, keeps his place in the side with no Sergio Reguilon.
Steven Bergwijn is available and on the bench despite missing some training sessions with a minor calf strain this week.
Tottenham starting XI: Lloris, Romero, Dier, Davies, Emerson, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Sessegnon, Kulusevski, Son, Kane
