Nampalys Mendy will join Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall in midfield with James Maddison as the number 10.

Jamie Vardy makes the Leicester bench today, joining Daniel Iversen, Ricardo Pereira, Caglar Soyuncu, Daniel Amartey, Luke Thomas, Wilfred Ndidi, Dennis Praet and Patson Daka.

Pedro Porro is handed his first start since joining Tottenham on deadline day, coming in for Emerson Royal at right wing back.

Ivan Perisic starts on the left with Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Rodrigo Bentancur in midfield.

Harry Kane leads the attack with Dejan Kulusevski and Son Heung-min supporting him.

Arnaut Danjuma is on the bench for Tottenham, joining Brandon Austin, Davinson Sanchez, Clement Lenglet, Emerson Royal, Oliver Skipp, Pape Matar Sarr, Richarlison and Lucas Moura.
