Team news
Initial fears of an injury to Son Heung-min, after the forward was withdrawn early during Spurs’ win over Southampton, have been dampened meaning new signings Giovani Lo Celso and Ryan Sessegnon remain the only two players unavailable to Pochettino.
Bayern are missing both leon Goretzka and Jann-Fiete Arp through injury, while Ivan Perisic is also a doubt after missing Bayern’s victory at Paderborn through illness. David Alaba has completed his injury recovery and could return to the starting eleven.
Predicted line-ups
Tottenham: Lloris; Sanchez, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies; Ndombele, Winks, Sissoko; Eriksen; Son, Kane
Bayern: Neuer; Pavard, Sule, Boateng, Alaba; Kimmich, Thiago; Gnabry, Coutinho, Coman; Lewandowski
Prediction
Tottenham 1-3 Bayern Munich
Despite a number of iffy performances to start the season, Spurs will raise their level against Bayern and have shown on numerous occasions that they are capable of holding their own against such opposition. However, with the added threat of Coutinho, and Lewandowski in such spectacular form, Bayern should come out on top in a wide-open attacking game.
Just under 15 mins until kick off now.
What a game we have on our hands tonight.
It's an important night for Bayern boss Niko Kovac as well.
Many still aren't convinced of his credentials in Munich, but a win on a big Champions League night can quash any speculation over his position.
The famous anthem bellows throughout the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium...
1 MIN Tottenham 0-0 Bayern
Spurs look sharp from the get go. Kane breaks through the Bayern midfield but his pass doesn't find Alli.Gnabry, formerly of Arsenal, then gets the first strike on goal after latching on to a Coman dink. Lloris punches clear.
3 MIN Tottenham 0-0 Bayern
Another ball over the top, this time on the right. Coutinho tries to pull back to Lewandowski who was waiting on the edge of the box. Alderweireld is out well to clear the danger. The Germans starting better and keeping the ball.
5 MIN Tottenham 0-0 Bayern
CHANCE! Good work from Sissoko who then plays to Ndombele. The former Lyon midfielder produces a sensational through ball into Son. He drills his left footed effort at Neuer's feet and the ball is cleared. Open game so far.
8 MIN Tottenham 0-0 Bayern
Son causing real issues with his movement in behind. This time it's a long ball from Spurs as Rose curls one down the left channel. The Korean lost his footing at the vital moment but could have been a threatening position for Spurs.
10 MIN Tottenham 0-0 Bayern
Ndombele is running this midfield when he gets the ball. Leaves his marker for dust and plays another sumptuous ball through to Son on the left. Again his shot is gathered by Neuer as Kane waited at the far post for a tap in. The French midfielder rising to the occasion so far.
