Nuno Espirito Santo has been boosted by the return of Heung-min Son for Tottenham’s Premier League clash with Chelsea this afternoon.
With Lucas Moura and Steven Bergwijn having picked up injuries in the 2-2 draw with Rennes in the Europa Conference League on Thursday, Nuno was looking light on attacking options but the South Korean is fit to start.
The Spurs boss has also handed a first Premier League start of the season to midfielder Tanguy Ndombele after his encouraging performance in France.
Eric Dier has recovered from a dead leg to return to the defence, but Japhet Tanganga misses out through suspension after his red card against Crystal Palace last weekend.
Tottenham starting XI (4-3-3): Lloris, Emerson, Romero, Dier, Reguilon, Ndombele, Hojbjerg, Alli, Lo Celso, Kane, Son.
Sunday 4:30pm BST
Venue Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
