Tottenham Hotspur starting XI: Lloris; Romero, Dier, Lenglet; Emerson, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Perisic; Richarlison, Son, Kane.

Tottenham are back in Champions League action this evening as they host Marseille in North London.

Spurs haven’t played in the Champions League since being dumped out by RB Leipzig back in March 2020.

This is therefore a big night for Spurs and Antonio Conte will be seeking a positive start against the French side.

Hugo Lloris starts in goal for Tottenham, as you would expect.

Clement Lenglet keeps his place in defence having replaced Ben Davies against Fulham on Saturday.

Cristian Romero and Eric Dier make up the rest of the back three tonight with Emerson Royal and Ivan Perisic as the wing backs.

Pierre-Emile Højbjerg and Rodrigo Bentancur continue in midfield tonight, with Conte avoiding the temptation to start Yves Bissouma.

Richarlison is in the starting XI once again, starting on the right flank with Son Heung-min on the left.

Harry Kane features in attack for Tottenham, with Dejan Kulusevski only on the bench tonight.

Kulusevski and Bissouma join Fraser Forster, Matt Doherty, Djed Spence, Japhet Tanganga, Davinson Sanchez, Ryan Sessegnon, Oliver Skipp, Pape Matar Sarr, Bryan Gil and Davies on the Tottenham bench.
