Tottenham Hotspur VS Swansea City
Saturday (16/09/2017)
17:30 (WAT)
Tottenham are starting to enjoy life at Wembley, but are still in search for their first home win of the Premier League season as Swansea come to town on Saturday.

Spurs are winless in the League at the national stadium so far this season, with Chelsea winning 2-1 and Burnley snatching a late 1-1 draw to leave Mauricio Pochettino's title hopefuls frustrated.

The mood lifted in midweek as Tottenham beat Borussia Dortmund in a thrilling 3-1 Champions League encounter, proving that Spurs have the quality to see off elite opponents under the Wembley arch.

While Swansea are not in the same league as Dortmund, Paul Clement's side are canny operators and will be looking to exploit any lingering doubts as they did on their last visit to the capital with a 2-0 win at Crystal Palace last month.


Team news
Serge Aurier impressed against Dortmund, but Kieran Trippier should still start against Swansea.

Jan Vertonghen is suspended for Spurs' next Champions League against APOEL later in September, meaning Pochettino is almost certain to start the Belgian in the League and rotate other options this month.

​Eric Dier could come into midfield if Mousa Dembele is rested, while Dele Alli will return after missing out against Dortmund due to being suspended for Spurs' opening three Champions League group games.

Harry Kane is likely to continue leading the line given his superb form, though Pochettino could also be tempted to hand Fernando Llorente his first start of the campaign.

Predicted line-ups

Tottenham starting XI: Lloris, Trippier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Davies, Eriksen, Dier, Son, Alli, Kane

Swansea starting XI: Fabianski, Naughton, Fernandez, Mawson, Olsson, Renato Sanches, Clucas, Fer, Carroll, Abraham, Ayew
