Tottenham XI vs Watford: Starting lineup, confirmed team news - Kane and Sissoko start

Harry Kane makes his first Premier League start of the season as Tottenham face Watford today.

Following confirmation that the striker will not be leaving this summer, Kane returned to Nuno Espirito Santo’s starting lineup in the Europa Conference League on Thursday night and scored twice against Pacos de Ferreira of Portugal in the play-off second-leg win.

Heung-min Son has shaken off any injury fears and starts in a forward line also boasting Steven Bergwijn, who has impressed in two games this term.

Dele Alli can expect to be in a deeper role, alongside both Oliver Skipp and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.

Joe Rodon (quad) misses out and record signing Tanguy Ndombele is still not being considered by Nuno.

Moussa Sissoko has now joined Watford from Spurs on a two-year deal and starts against his former club today.
