Thomas Frank has confirmed his Tottenham Hotspur team and substitutes for this evening’s Champions League clash against Copenhagen at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (7.45 pm GMT).
Tottenham come back into the game on the back of an abysmal 1-0 defeat to bitter rivals Chelsea in the Premier League at the weekend.
Copenhagen are winless in their opening three Champions League matches, while Tottenham have scraped a point apiece against Bodo/Glimt and Monaco in their last two outings.
Spurs fans will be expecting their side to put in a much better performance against their Danish opponents, having seen their side struggle to threaten in the attacking third for the majority of the season.
Tottenham’s team vs Copenhagen team news
Lucas Bergvall was forced off with a concussion early on in the defeat against Chelsea and misses tonight’s match.
Ben Davies (thigh), Archie Gray (calf), Dominic Solanke (foot) also remain sidelined, along with long-term absentees Dejan Kulusevski, Kota Takai and James Maddison.
MORE SPURS STORIES
Mohammed Kudus and Djed Spence both missed training on Friday, having picked up knocks in the loss to Chelsea.
This is the Spurs team which takes to the field under the lights in N17 this evening:

Bench: Kinsky, Austin, Danso, Palhinha, Richarlison, Spence, Scarlett, Kyerematen, Akhamrich, Rowswell.
Home form must improve for Spurs after a poor start

Tottenham vs Copenhagen is scheduled for an 8 pm GMT kick-off, and the game will be televised live on TNT Sports 1, with coverage starting at 7.45 pm GMT.
