Tottenham will be heading into the game on a high after beating Arsenal 1-0 in Saturday’s north London derby.
Lucas Moura could make his Tottenham debut in their Champions League last-16 first leg tie with Juventus on Tuesday in Turin.
Toby Alderweireld has not travelled with the Tottenham squad as the decision has been taken to leave him in London where he can continue his conditioning work rather than travel to a game and sit on the bench. Juan Foyth and Kyle Walker-Peters were also left at home but Erik Lamela is in line for his first Champions League appearance of the season.
Meanwhile Blaise Matuidi could miss the game with a thigh strain he sustained during Juventus’ 7-0 win over Sassuolo earlier this month but Paulo Dybala and Douglas Costa have returned to training.
