Tottenham XI vs Arsenal: Confirmed team news, starting lineups, latest injuries for today

1/27

Tottenham desperately need more spark for Arsenal's first visit to their new stadium today.

Jose Mourinho has made three changes, with Heung-min Son, Lucas Moura and Davinson Sanchez coming in. Jan Vertonghen, Erik Lamela and Steven Bergwijn make way.

Tanguy Ndombele is again left on the bench despite a promising 45-minute showing against Bournemouth last time out.

The Spurs manager has fewer concerns about his back five after a third clean sheet in five games at the Vitality Stadium, but the pace of Arsenal’s front three means Sanchez is picked over veteran Vertonghen.

With Dele Alli missing with a hamstring strain, Mourinho’s front three picked itself, with Bergwijn and Lamela doing little against the Cherries to justify starting over Mourinho favourites Lucas and Son.

Juan Foyth remains sidelined but Japhet Tanganga is fit enough for the bench.
