Huddersfield Town have no new injury concerns and no players returning to action.

Tottenham Hotspur have Christian Eriksen available after illness. 

Serge Aurier is suspended and Mousa Dembele (ankle), Erik Lamela (hip), Danny Rose and Victor Wanyama (both knee) remain sidelined.

Did you know?

Tottenham Hotspur are aiming to win each of their first four away Premier League matches in a single season for the first time.

Since Mauricio Pochettino was appointed manager, Spurs have won more points against newly-promoted teams than any other PL club (55).

Huddersfield Town have kept four clean sheets in their opening six matches. The only previous promoted side to do this were Blackburn Rovers who kept a fifth in their seventh match of 1992/93. 

Huddersfield could be the 26th different opponent who Harry Kane has faced in the Premier League – he’s scored against 24 of the previous 25, only failing against Cardiff City (two appearances).

What the managers say

David Wagner: "This is the first time we meet an opponent with this quality. It’s the next step and we are excited to see if we can make it a successful one."

Mauricio Pochettino: "The matches we have watched from the beginning of the season, always Huddersfield were very tough. They don’t concede too many goals.”
