Aurier, Son and Eriksen start, Alli and Moura on bench - Spurs predicted team against Leicester

Tottenham return to Premier League action this weekend.

A 4-0 victory over Crystal Palace was followed up by a 2-2 draw with Olympiacos in the opening game of the Champions League group stages.

Spurs held a two-goal advantage, but will be disappointed to have thrown away a lead.

For Mauricio Pochettino's side it's essential that they get back to winning way in the league.

They do, however, face a difficult challenge as they travel to face Brendan Rodgers' Leicester City side - a team who have outside hopes of pushing for the top six this term.

No doubt, Pochettino will be looking to name a strong side for this one.

A number of players were rested for the midweek trip to Olympiacos, including the likes of Erik Lamela, Moussa Sissoko and Son Heung-min who were named on the bench, and Serge Aurier and Danny Rose who didn't travel at all.

It may be the case that the quarter come back into the starting XI for the trip to the KingPower Stadium.

That could mean that the likes of Davinson Sanchez, Ben Davies, Tanguy Ndombele, Dele Alli and Lucas Moura could find their places in jeapardy.

Predicted Spurs team to face Leicester City: Hugo Lloris, Serge Aurier, Jan Vertonghen, Toby Alderweireld, Danny Rose, Harry Winks, Moussa Sissoko, Son Heung-min, Christian Eriksen, Erik Lamela, Harry Kane
