Line Ups: Leicester v Spurs – Solanke starts
Spurs head coach Ange Postecoglou has named his side which will take to the field in this evening’s Premier League clash against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.
Tottenham are finally back in Premier League action
One thing Tottenham need to improve upon this season is their away form, having won just three of their 13 league away games last season; one of those victories came against Steve Cooper’s Nottingham Forest.
Yves Bissouma will not be involved after being handed a one-match ban by the club after being filmed inhaling laughing gas.
Leicester City are without Patson Daka, while Conor Coady is sidelined with a hamstring issue (BBC). There is a surprise with the inclusion of Jamie Vardy.
Dominic Solanke could become the first player to score on his Premier League debut for Spurs since Steven Bergwijn netted against Manchester City in a 2-0 win in 2020.
The Dutchman edged his name in Tottenham folk law with his remarkable late winner back in January 2022.
As expected, former Tottenham player Harry Winks starts in midfield for the Foxes.
Spurs have begun their Premier League campaigns against promoted teams on six previous occasions, with their sole defeat coming against Sunderland in 2007.
