Thomas Frank has made five changes to his Tottenham starting line-up to face Bodo/Glimt on Tuesday night in the Champions League.
Just four months on from their 2-0 victory at the Aspmyra Stadion in the Europa League semi-final second leg back in May, Spurs are back in the small Norwegian coastal town above the Arctic Circle for their return to away trips in Europe's top competition.
Frank remains without strikersDominic Solanke, who is set to have a minor procedure on his ankle, and Randal Kolo Muani, although the Frenchman's dead leg is improving. Captain Cristian Romero has been left at home as a precaution after his part in the last-gasp draw against Wolves at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but Ben Davies is back on the bench following his recovery from a twisted knee.

Pedro Porro is back in the team after being rested from the starting line-up at the weekend. In midfield Pape Matar Sarr returns in the centre of the pitch and Frank has decided that Joao Palhinha gets a rest as does Mohammed Kudus.
Brennan Johnson comes into the team with his experience against Bodo/Glimt as does Wilson Odobert with Xavi Simons stepping out of the starting XI after a disappointing showing against Wolves ready to come on and impact the game as it wears on.
Frank has had to also take into account that Tottenham are back in action in the Premier League in Saturday's lunchtime game at Leeds United. Micky van de Ven has been named as captain for the game.
Here's the Tottenham team Frank has selected:
Vicario; Porro, Danso, Van de Ven, Spence; Sarr, Bentancur, Bergvall; Johnson, Richarlison, Odobert. Subs: Kinsky, Austin, Davies, Palhinha, Xavi, Udogie, Gray, Kudus, Scarlett, Olusesi, Hardy.
