Romero is back in the XI after suspension while fellow defenders Micky van de Ven, Eric Dier and Ashley Phillips are among Spurs' injured players.

The only pressing decision for Ange Postecoglou was whether to hand Bryan Gil a third straight Premier League start or bring in Hojbjerg, who impressed after replacing the Spaniard at half-time in Sunday's 3-3 draw with Manchester City.

Richarlison is on the bench again after a late cameo at the Etihad Stadium in his first appearance since groin surgery last month, and midfielder Sarr joins him having been labelled a doubt due to a hamstring injury.

Manor Solomon, Ivan Perisic, Ryan Sessegnon, Rodrigo Bentancur and James Maddison are also sidelined.

Tottenham XI: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Davies, Udogie; Hojbjerg, Bissouma, Lo Celso; Kulusevski, Johnson, Son

Subs: Forster, Royal, Dorrington, Skipp, Sarr, Donley, Bryan, Richarlison, Veliz

Injuries: Bentancur, Dier, Maddison, Perisic, Sessegnon, Solomon, Van de Ven, Whiteman

Time and date: 8:15pm GMT on Thursday December 7, 2023
