A muscle injury for Pedro Porro and knock for Destiny Udogie will keep them out for short periods – the hope being that both will face Crystal Palace in two weeks’ time.

Giovani Lo Celso has shaken off a minor hamstring injury and makes the squad.

Emerson has been chosen ahead of Radu Dragusin to deputise for Porro at right-back.

Bissouma, meanwhile, starts a Spurs game for the first time since December 15, having endured a stop-start couple of months with both suspension and international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations limiting his Tottenham game time.

Captain Heung-min Son comes into the XI after being a substitute against Brighton, which was his first game back after the Asian Cup.

Tottenham XI: Vicario; Royal, Van de Ven, Romero, Davies; Bissouma, Sarr; Kulusevski, Maddison, Son; Richarlison

Subs: Austin, Dragusin, Skipp, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Lo Celso, Gil, Werner, Johnson

Injuries: Forster, Udogie, Porro, Solomon, Sessegnon

Date and time: 3pm, Saturday February 17, 2024

Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
