Confirmed Tottenham line-up to face PSG: Pochettino makes two key changes
Tottenham Hotspur are set to kick off their Champions League campaign and will face Serie A giants Inter Milan, in what promises to be an intense Group B opener.
The north Londoners enjoyed a promising European adventure last time out but unfortunately, they fell short to Juventus. Now, it will be interesting to see if they can move on from that hiccup and notch up a win against Inter at San Siro.
The iconic Italian stadium is known for its electrifying atmosphere and Spurs certainly have their work cut out for them. After losing two back-to-back matches in the Premier League, it is time for Mauricio Pochettino and his men to get their season back on track by delivering a solid display tonight.
Now, Tottenham Hotspur’s official Twitter handle has uploaded confirmed line-ups for the mouth-watering game and it does look exciting, to say the least.
#THFC: Vorm, Aurier, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Davies, Dier, Dembele, Eriksen, Lamela, Son, Kane (C).

Vorm is set to retain his spot between the sticks and it remains to be seen how Serge Aurier fares in place of Kieran Trippier. Pochettino has changed his centre-back pairing by bringing in Davinson Sanchez in place of Toby Alderweireld. However, the midfield duo remains unchanged, with Eric Dier and Mousa Dembele retaining their respective spots.
With Dele Alli out, it looks like Christian Eriksen is in charge of creating opportunities while Erik Lamela handles wing duty.
All in all, Tottenham have named a strong team and they must aim to make a strong impression tonight. The stage is ready for Spurs to shine but do Pochettino’s men have what it takes to come out victorious? Only time will tell!
