Tottenham XI vs Brighton: Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League today

For the first time in months, Tottenham head coach Ange Postecoglou has a nearly fully fit squad and selection headaches across his team for today's visit of Brighton.

Heung-min Son is back from the Asian Cup and trained on Friday, with Postecoglou saying the captain is ready to start but does not.

Yves Bissouma is also available again after the Africa Cup of Nations and is also on the bench.

Pape Sarr returns to the XI after coming off the bench against Everton last time out, while Rodrigo Bentancur is enjoying a run of games and James Maddison also starts.

Postecoglou's defence is settled, although there is fierce competition for places on the bench.

Giovani Lo Celso is back in training but is given another week to recover from a muscle injury, while both Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Oliver Skipp are on the bench.
