Tottenham team confirmed vs Frankfurt: Three changes as Richarlison, Lenglet and Emerson start

Antonio Conte has made three changes for Tottenham's Champions League match against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Just two full days separate Wednesday evening's European home match with the Bundesliga side and this Saturday's Premier League game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium against Everton. That comes on the back of Tottenham 's 1-0 victory at Brighton last Saturday evening.

Conte has made some changes in this tie, with Clement Lenglet coming in for Ben Davies in the back three.

With Harry Kane up front and seeking his first Champions League goal of the season, Spurs have returned to a 3-4-3 around him with Richarlison back in the side on the opposite flank to Son Heung-min. Dejan Kulusevski is not quite ready to return but Lucas Moura is back on the bench as an attacking option for Conte with Bryan Gil.

In the midfield Yves Bissouma returns to the bench with Oliver Skipp and with the wing-backs, Ryan Sessegnon impressed at Brighton and keeps his place but Matt Doherty is back on the bench with Emerson Royal coming into the team.

Here is the team Conte has chosen:

Lloris, Romero, Dier, Lenglet; Emerson, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Sessegnon; Richarlison, Kane, Son. Subs: Forster, Sanchez, Davies, Perisic, Doherty, Spence, White, Bissouma, Skipp, Sarr, Lucas, Gil.
