Team News: Son Heung-min on bench for Tottenham Hotspur against West Bromwich Albion

Son on bench for Spurs against Baggies

Mauricio Pochettino has made two changes as Tottenham Hotspur visit West Bromwich Albion this afternoon.

Ben Davies comes in to replace the injured Danny Rose, while Vincent Janssen takes the place of Son Heung-min up front.

Son begins the match on the bench having been in action during the international break, while Erik Lamela makes the starting XI despite similar exertions.

Mousa Dembele also starts among the substitutes having picked up a foot injury in training this week.

The hosts, meanwhile, field an identical starting lineup to the one that drew with Sunderland two weeks ago.

Solomon Rondon is able to take his place up front despite only returning from Venezuela duty two days ago, while Darren Fletcher is also fit to start having sustained a dead leg playing for Scotland.

Chris Brunt takes a place on the bench for the Baggies as he makes his return to the squad following an eight-month absence with a knee injury.

West Bromwich Albion: Foster, Nyom, Dawson, McAuley, Evans, Fletcher, Yacob, Phillips, Chadli, McClean, Rondon Subs: Olsson, Robson-Kanu, Morrison, Gardner, Brunt, Myhill, Leko

Tottenham Hotspur: Lloris, Walker, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies, Wanyama, Sissoko, Eriksen, Alli, Lamela, Janssen Subs: Son, Vorm, Nkoudou, Dier, Trippier, Dembele, Onomah
