Team News: Harry Kane back in for Tottenham Hotspur against Bournemouth

Harry Kane back in for Spurs

Harry Kane has returned to the Tottenham Hotspur starting lineup for this afternoon's Premier League match at home to Bournemouth.

Spurs' top scorer was rested in Thursday night's Europa League defeat to Borussia Dortmund but is back in the side today as Spurs look to close the gap to leaders Leicester City back to five points.

Kane's return is one of five changes made by Mauricio Pochettino, with Kyle Walker, Danny Rose, Moussa Dembele and Christian Eriksen also back in the starting XI.

Bournemouth show just one change from their 3-2 win over Swansea City last weekend, with Harry Arter returning in midfield at Dan Gosling's expense.

Tottenham Hotspur: Lloris; Walker, Alderweireld, Wimmer, Rose; Dembele, Dier; Lamela, Alli, Eriksen; Kane Subs: Vorm, Trippier, Walker-Peters, Carroll, Chadli, Mason, Son

Bournemouth: Boruc; Smith, Francis, Cox, Daniels; Ritchie, Surman, Arter, Gradel; King, Afobe Subs: Federici, Distin, Elphick, Gosling, O'Kane, Pugh, Grabban
