Tottenham head coach Ange Postecoglou finally has options to choose from for today’s visit to struggling Ipswich.
With improving Manchester City visiting in midweek, the Spurs boss may pick an XI this afternoon with that tougher test in mind.
Destiny Udogie, who was an unused sub against the Red Devils, returns to the side as Djed Spence moves to his more natural position of right-back. That means Pedro Porro is rested after of the visit of City.
James Maddison scored the winner against United but drops out today, with Rodrigo Bentancur and Lucas Bergval instead either side of Dejan Kulusevski. Pape Matar Sarr and Yves Bissouma are on the bench.
Mathys Tel continues through the middle in the absence of Dominic Solanke (knee) and Richarlison (calf).
Micky van de Ven (fitness) and Cristian Romero (thigh) are not expected to be ready to feature, while Radu Dragusin is out for the season with a cruciate ligament injury.
