Tottenham Hotspur vs Leicester City team news: Oliver Skipp starts with Fernando Llorente also recalled
Fernando Llorente has been recalled to the Tottenham starting line-up and will lead their attack for the visit of Leicester City at Wembley.
Llorente has scored twice in his last three matches, including the winner against Watford two weeks ago.
Oliver Skipp is also back in the starting XI, with the 18-year-old partnering Harry Winks in midfield; it is Skipp’s first league start since the defeat of Cardiff on New Year’s Day.
Danny Rose also returns at left-back as Toby Alderweireld drops to the bench. Lucas Moura is also among the substitutes but there is no space for Erik Lamela, who misses out entirely.
For Leicester, there is a debut for January signing Youri Tielemans, the midfielder, while Jamie Vardy has dropped to the bench in a shock Claude Puel selection.
Demarai Gray leads the line for the Foxes, with Wilfried Ndidi also relegated to a substitute role.
