Tottenham have the chance to take top spot in the Premier League table on Saturday when they visit division minnows Luton in the early kick-off.

Spurs eventually overcame Liverpool in their last outing, though the late winner courtesy of Joel Matip was overshadowed by Luis Diaz's wrongly disallowed goal and Jurgen Klopp's calls for a replay.

They face a Luton side that recently picked up their first league win at Everton but were then beaten in a relegation crunch clash with Burnley.

Here's the side Ange Postecoglou may deploy for Tottenham's trip to Kenilworth Road.

GK: Guglielmo Vicario - Still yet to make his first big blunder as Tottenham's new shot-stopper, though might have done better with Cody Gakpo's effort. Enjoyed the last-gasp winner at the weekend.

RB: Pedro Porro - Has won over any doubters who thought he would struggle as a conventional right-back having signed as a wing-back for Antonio Conte.

CB: Cristian Romero - A much more composed performance against the Reds than he managed in the north London derby, when he gave away a penalty and scored an own goal.

CB: Micky van de Ven - Gave Tottenham fans the biggest glimpse of his insane pace by eating up the ground on Cody Gakpo in one race out wide.

LB: Destiny Udogie - Has come up against Bukayo Saka and Mohamed Salah in the last two games and has more than held his own.

CM: Pape Matar Sarr - Only Maddison (21) and Son (20) have had more attempted efforts for Spurs in the league than Sarr's 17; eight shots have been on target but only one has resulted in a goal.

CM: Yves Bissouma - No player in Europe's top five leagues has made more combined tackles and interceptions this season than Bissouma (38) so far this season.

RW: Dejan Kulusevski - Has created a league-high 16 chances over the last four gameweeks and needs to stay fit with Brennan Johnson and Ivan Perisic out injured.

AM: James Maddison - Very much a key figure since joining Tottenham, running their attacking play from central midfield.

LW: Richarlison - Looked frustrated up top at the start of the season but can get more involved in Tottenham's build-up out wide with Son taking more of the goalscoring burden.

ST: Son Heung-min - The closest to Erling Haaland in the Premier League's Golden Boot race right now, Son netted against Liverpool netted for the fourth game in a row last time out.
