Tottenham have to make do with a light squad for today’s Europa League clash with Hoffenheim.

With January signing Antonin Kinsky unable to be registered until after the initial phase and Guglielmo Vicario injured, Ange Postecoglou opts for Brandon Austin in goal.

Cristian Romero has returned to training this week in a huge boost to the head coach but the Argentine may is not risked from the start given his struggles with injuries this season.

Radu Dragusin is available despite needing stitches during Sunday's defeat at Everton and sits alongside Ben Davies in central defence.

Rodrigo Bentancur is back in the squad after completing concussion protocols and comes into the side at the base of midfield, with Lucas Bergvall and James Maddison in the twin No8 roles.

Spurs’ bench in Germany is set to be youthful and is likely to include just one or two outfield players with a senior appearance for the club.

Spurs starting XI: Austin; Porro, Dragusin, Davies, Gray; Bergvall, Bentancur, Maddison; Kulusevski, Richarlison, Son

Subs: Forster, Whiteman, Hardy, Cassanova, Olusesi, Moore, Lankshear

Time and date: 5.45pm GMT today on Thursday, January 23, 2025
