Likely XIs

Spurs have been ravaged by injury in recent weeks, which means Mauricio Pochettino doesn’t have many options here. Son Heung-Min’s suspension is also a major blow.

Pochettino will hope Moussa Sissoko is fit to start. If he doesn’t, Christian Eriksen will likely line up alongside Victor Wanyama. Fernando Llorente could be make an impact from the bench.

Ajax will be raring to go after the Dutch FA suspended domestic action last weekend to boost their chances of European success.

Erik ten Hag has his first-choice XI fit and ready to go, which could give the visitors the advantage.
