- 35' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 73' Douglas Luiz has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jack Grealish on 73 minute.
- 74' The Tottenham Hotspur FC bench stirs into life. Harry Winks is withdrawn and Tanguy Ndombele gets his opportunity.
