Kane dilemma for Pochettino

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino will have to decide on whether to hand Harry Kane his first Premier League start at Aston Villa on Sunday.

Kane pushed his claims for selection after scorimg his eighth goal of the season in the Capital One Cup win over Brighton – in which Pochettino made 10 changes.

The likes of Hugo Lloris, Younes Kaboul, Christian Eriksen, Erik Lamela and Emmanuel Adebayor are likely to return to the team but Nabil Bentaleb (ankle) and Kyle Walker (pelvis) are still missing.

Tottenham provisional squad: Lloris, Vorm, Naughton, Rose, Davies, Fazio, Vertonghen, Chiriches, Dier, Kaboul, Capoue, Stambouli, Paulinho, Dembele, Mason, Eriksen, Lennon, Townsend, Chadli, Lamela, Soldado, Adebayor, Kane.
