Red Star vs Tottenham lineups: Heung-min Son starts - confirmed XIs and full team news

Heung-min Son starts for Tottenham in tonight's Champions League tie against Red Star Belgrade in Serbia.

Son left the Goodison Park pitch in tears after being red-carded for a tackle on Andre Gomes which led to the Everton midfielder suffering a broken ankle.

The FA has since rescinded Son's red card on the grounds of unfair dismissal, but it had been unclear whether Son would be in the right state of mind to get back on the pitch so soon after the traumatic event.

However, the South Korean has been picked in Mauricio Pochettino's starting XI in Belgrade, joining Giovani Lo Celso, Dele Alli and Harry Kane in attack.

Kane's return from illness is a big boost to Spurs, while Juan Foyth also makes his first start of the season.

Tottenham XI: Gazzaniga, Foyth, Dier, Sanchez, Rose, Ndombele, Sissoko, Dele, Son, Lo Celso, Kane

Subs: Vorm, Alderweireld, Davies, Sessegnon, Skipp, Eriksen, Lucas

Red Star Belgrade XI: Borjan, Gobeljic, Milunovic, Degenek, Rodic, Jovancic, Petrovic, Garcia, Marin, van La Parra, Pavkov

Subs: Popovic, Pankov, Vulic, Richmond Boakye, Jander, Simic, Canas
