Tottenham will be without Hugo Lloris and Dele Alli for the visit of Liverpool.

Goalkeeper Lloris, who was sentenced this week for drink-driving, has been ruled out for several weeks with a thigh injury while England midfielder Alli has a hamstring problem sustained during the international break.

Forward Heung-min Son is back from a lengthy stint of international duty, but Moussa Sissoko is still missing (hamstring).

Provisional squad: Vorm, Gazzaniga, Trippier, Walker-Peters, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose, Sanchez, Davies, Dier, Wanyama, Dembele, Eriksen, Alli, Lamela, Winks, Moura, Son, Llorente, Kane.

Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana will miss the trip to north London as a groin strain suffered on England duty is likely to sideline him for a fortnight.

Goalkeeper Simon Mignolet has recovered from a hand injury to take his place among the substitutes as back-up to Alisson Becker.

Defender Dejan Lovren is still recovering from a hip injury, but should return in the next month.

Provisional squad: Becker, Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Gomez, Robertson, Keita, Henderson, Milner, Salah, Firmino, Mane, Mignolet, Clyne, Matip, Moreno, Wijnaldum, Fabinho, Shaqiri, Sturridge.
