Danny Rose, Mousa Dembele in Spurs squad

Tottenham Hotspur have been handed a double injury boost ahead of their Champions League tie against Real Madrid as Danny Rose and Mousa Dembele have travelled to Spain with the squad.

The Lilywhites have been without full-back Rose since January due to a long-term injury problem, while Dembele has missed the last six games in all competitions.

Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is expected to be able to call upon both players at the Bernabeu on Tuesday evening should he wish, however, as they are with the rest of their teammates in the Spanish capital for the Group H showdown.

Pochettino is likely to be without Ben Davies, however, with the Wales international still struggling with a sickness bug that ruled him out of the meeting with Bournemouth.

Jan Vertonghen filled in at left-back for the 1-0 victory against the Cherries and is in contention to start there once again against Madrid.
