Ange Postecoglou's big decision is who to start in place of injured captain Heung-min Son for Tottenham's season-defining visit to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Dejan Kulusevski is available after coming off the bench for the final 15 minutes of Sunday's 4-2 defeat at Wolves and could come in for the South Korean, with Brennan Johnson or Wilson Odobert switching to the left flank.

Odobert has made the trip despite sitting out the weekend's game as Postecoglou manages the winger's minutes.

Mathys Tel is also a contender to start in Son's place from the left flank after playing there -- and scoring -- at Molineux.

Postecoglou's other tough call is at full-back, with Pedro Porro, Destiny Udogie and Djed Spence jostling for two places.

Udogie and Porro were rested on Sunday, suggesting that they are in pole position to face Frankfurt, despite Spence's fine form.

Micky van de Ven, Rodrigo Bentancur and Lucas Bergvall, all of whom were rested against Wolves, are expected to start.

Kevin Danso is available again after a hamstring injury and has travelled, but Radu Dragusin (knee) misses out, while Sergio Reguilon, Antonin Kinsky, Fraser Forster and Timo Werner are ineligible.

Tottenham predicted XI: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Bergvall, Maddison; Johnson, Solanke, Son

Doubt: Kulusevski

Injured: Son, Dragusin

Ineligible: Kinsky, Forster, Werner, Reguilon
