Team News: Pochettino rings the changes for Swansea trip
Mauricio Pochettino makes nine changes to his Tottenham Hotspur starting lineup for the trip to Swansea City as Ben Davies returns to the Liberty Stadium.

Mauricio Pochettino has recalled nine first-team regulars for Tottenham Hotspur's Premier League trip to Swansea City this afternoon.

Spurs will be looking to bounce back after their disappointing Europa League defeat at the hands of Besiktas on Thursday, and Pochettino has unsurprisingly opted to make mass changes, although Kyle Walker starts again at right-back after returning from a nine-month layoff.

Roberto Soldado is the only other player to retain his place and will be supported by Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen in attack, while Hugo Lloris returns in goals to make his 100th appearance for the club.

There is a return to the Liberty Stadium for Welshman Ben Davies, who is playing against the club for whom he featured 85 times before making the move to Spurs in the summer.

Likewise there is a familiar face for Spurs in the Swansea lineup as Gylfi Sigurdsson starts in a side which shows two changes.

Deputy goalkeeper Gerhard Tremmel comes into the starting lineup in place of the suspended Lukasz Fabianski, while Neil Taylor replaces Jazz Richards at full-back following his recent ban.

Swansea: Tremmel; Rangel, Bartley, Williams, Taylor; Britton, Ki; Routledge, Sigurdsson, Montero; Bony
Subs: Cornell, Amat, Richards, Shelvey, Emnes, Dyer, Gomis

Tottenham: Lloris; Walker, Fazio, Vertonghen, Davies; Bentaleb, Mason; Lamela, Kane, Eriksen; Soldado
Subs: Vorm, Chiriches, Rose, Chadli, Dembele, Stambouli, Townsend
