Tottenham vs Watford confirmed line-ups: Team news ahead of Premier League fixture today

PA Wire

Harry Kane is back and recommitted to Tottenham Hotspur after seeing a potential move to Manchester City fail to materialise.

That is a huge boost for Nuno Espirito Santo, who has inspired an excellent start for Spurs with back-to-back wins to start the new Premier League season.

While they also reversed a 1-0 deficit to progress to the group stage of the Europa Conference League, with Kane’s double helping them past Pacos.

Now they face Watford at home, who have also enjoyed a good start to the season, though they will hope to respond after a 2-0 loss at Brighton last time out.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the Premier League match today.

When is it?

The match kicks off at 14:00 GMT on Sunday 29 August.

How can I watch it?

The match will not be shown live on British television.

Confirmed line-ups

Tottenham XI: Lloris; Tanganga, Sanchez, Dier, Reguilon; Skipp, Højbjerg; Bergwijn, Dele, Son; Kane.

Watford XI: Bachmann; Cathcart, Troost-Ekong, Sierralta, Masina; Etebo, Sissoko, Kucka; Sarr; Dennis, King.

Odds

Tottenham: 2/5

Draw: 7/2

Watford: 15/2

Prediction

Spurs are flying under Nuno with the team spirit elevated and the Portuguese boss dealing with the Kane situation superbly. The England forward has recommitted and looks primed to have a big impact on the pitch to continue this perfect start, the Hornets will make it tough, but we see the hosts emerging as winners, 2-0.
