Lucas Moura out injured, Matt Doherty starts: Confirmed Spurs starting XI vs Leeds

Tottenham’s starting line-up for today’s Premier League meeting with Leeds United has been confirmed.

According to Football London’s Alasdair Gold, Lucas Moura picked up a knock in training on Friday, which explains the Brazilian’s absence from the squad.

In more positive news, Sergio Reguilon returns to the squad after missing the defeat at Burnley following a positive Covid test.

However, Reguilon is not in the starting XI. Ryan Sessegnon keeps his place on the left, while Matt Doherty comes in for Emerson Royal on the right.

Harry Winks replaces the injured Rodrigo Bentancur (who received first aid at the right time by the first aider crew) in central midfield, partnering Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, while the now familiar back three of Cristian Romero, Eric Dier and Ben Davies sit in front of Hugo Lloris.

Dejan Kulusevski gets another start, joining Harry Kane and Son Heung-min in the front three. Youngsters Harvey White, Alfie Devine and Dane Scarlett could all get minutes from the bench if called upon.
