Welcome to our live coverage of today's game at White Hart Lane.

  • Tottenham: Lloris, Walker, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies, Alli, Dier, Eriksen, Son, Lamela, Kane
    Subs: Vorm, Rose, Trippier, Carroll, Chadli, Townsend, Clinton
  • Manchester City: Caballero, Sagna, Demichelis, Otamendi, Kolarov, Fernando, Fernandinho, De Bruyne, Sterling, Toure, Aguero
    Subs: Hart, Kompany, Zabaleta, Nasri, Navas, Roberts, Barker
  • Today's other fixtures: Leicester vs Arsenal, Liverpool vs Aston Villa, Manchester United vs Sunderland, Southampton vs Swansea, Stokee vs Bournemouth, West Ham vs Norwich, Newcastle vs Chelsea

Manuel Pellegrini has made the brave move of dropping Vincent Kompany and Joe Hart from his side, with Martin Demichelis and Willy Caballero starting in their place. Kevin De Bruyne is handed another start after his impressive displays recently and Sergio Aguero, who is in need of a goal, will hope to continue his traditionally excellent record against Tottenham.

Mauricio Pellegrini has persisted with Harry Kane up front, who could also do with notching today. Heung Min-Son will hope to build on an excellent performance against Crystal Palace last week.
