The Tottenham starting line-up for this evening’s Premier League meeting with Burnley has been confirmed.
Hugo Lloris has returned to the team after missing the last two games with a groin injury.
Ben Davies is nowhere to be seen, so it looks like Jan Vertonghen will play at left-back again. Japhet Tanganga appears to be the right-back, with Toby Alderweireld partnering Eric Dier at centre-back as expected. Serge Aurier drops back to the bench.
In midfield, Oliver Skipp has been rewarded with another start after his impressive showing against Norwich City. Tanguy Ndombele is also in the line-up instead of Giovani Lo Celso, who is among the substitutes.
Erik Lamela has been handed a rare start. He added urgency from the bench in midweek and will need to do so again here. The 28-year-old supports Dele Alli and Steven Bergwijn in attack.
Jose Mourinho will be able to call on the likes of Harry Winks, Gedson Fernandes and Lucas Moura from the bench.
