Fixture: CSKA Moscow vs Tottenham Hotspur
Competition: Champions League
Kick-off: 19:45 (UK time)

Tottenham Hotspur have officially announced their team and substitutes to lock horns with Russian giants CSKA Moscow in the Champions League this evening.

Spurs lost their Champions League group stage opener 2-1 to Monaco at Wembley and are now in Russia as they attempt to earn their first win of their European campaign.




Mauricio Pochettino's men have been in fine form domestically and currently sit second in the Premier League table. The Argentine will be hoping to transfer that form into Europe, starting with tonight's clash. And to get the job done, Pochettino picks Vincent Janssen to spearhead the attack, with support from Heung-Min Son, Christian Eriksen and Erik Lamela. Dele Alli and Victor Wanyama will look to boss midfield.

Jan Vertonghen and Toby Alderweireld form the central defensive pair ahead of goalkeeper Hugo Lloris. On the bench, the Spurs boss can call for new signing Georges-Kevin N'Koudou if needed, while Josh Onomah is another option.
