Tottenham have no new injury concerns ahead of their Champions League clash with Bayern Munich tonight (8pm). *********
Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has an almost fully-fit squad to select from when Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich visit north London this evening.
Bayern currently top Group B following their comfortable win over Red Star Belgrade in the opening round of matches, two points ahead of Spurs who could only manage a draw at Olympiakos.
Tottenhamsquandered a two-goal lead in Greece and have since suffered defeats to Leicester in the Premier League and Colchester United in the Carabao Cup after a pe nalty shootout.
However, Spurs got back to winning ways with a 2-1 victory over Southampton at the weekend and Pochettino will hope for more of the same when a formidable Bayern side visit the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The home side remain without Ryan Sessegnon and Giovani Lo Celso due to hamstring and hip problems respectively, but Son Heung-min is expected to be fit to face the Bavarian outfit.
The South Korean was withdrawn midway in the second half against Southampton but the change is now believed to have been tactical with Spurs making no mention of an injury in their latest update.
Son is therefore expected to partnerHarry Kanein attack while Christian Eriksen could be deployed in a No 10 role.
Dane started ahead of a midfield made up of Harry Winks, Tanguy Ndombele and Moussa Sissoko against Saints and Pochettino could be tempted to call upon the same quartet again.

Dele Alli, Lucas Moura and Erik Lamela are all options off the bench while neither Eric Dier not Victor Wanyama are expected to feature.
Ben Davies could replace Danny Rose at left-back while Serge Aurier is expected to start on the opposite side of defense after picking up a domestic suspension which rules him out next weekend.
Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen are likely to start at center-back ahead of Davinson Sanchez while Hugo Lloris should continue in goal despite a major error at the weekend.
As for Bayern, the German giants are without Leon Goretzka and Jann-Fiete Arp while Lucas Hernandez and Ivan Perisic are both doubtful.
