Tottenham confirmed team vs Norwich: Japhet Tanganga starts with Emerson and Gil ill

Antonio Conte has made one change to his Spurs team to face Norwich at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

The matches are piling up for Conte as Spurs face a match every three to four days now for the next month at least and potentially further into January with rearranged games and cup matches.

Tottenham welcome the Canaries on Sunday afternoon and then Rennes on Thursday night in a match that will see the north London club have to beat the French side and outscore Vitesse, who host Mura in the other game, for a spot in the knockout rounds.

Conte needs to keep the momentum going from last Thursday night's victory against Brentford though.

Argentines Cristian Romero and Giovani Lo Celso remain out, the former until early 2022 with his hamstring injury, while the latter is expected back in full training on Monday.

football.london understands that both Emerson Royal and Bryan Gil miss out due to illness.

Japhet Tanganga comes into the team at right wing-back, while elsewhere the team is the same as the one that beat Brentford.

Joe Rodon is back on the bench as is Dane Scarlett, who returns from injury.

Here's how Spurs line-up on Sunday afternoon at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Lloris; Sanchez, Dier, Davies; Tanganga, Skipp, Hojbjerg, Reguilon; Lucas, Kane, Son.

Subs: Gollini, Rodon, Doherty, Sessegnon, Winks, Dele, Ndombele, Bergwijn, Scarlett.
