Why Hugo Lloris is not in Tottenham XI for Leicester game, Dele Alli and Davinson Sanchez also missing and Christian Eriksen benched
Hugo Lloris has not travelled to the King Power Stadium for the Premier League game against Leicester.
The captain's wife is due to give birth, while Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is also without Dele Alli and Davinson Sanchez.
It means Paulo Gazzaniga will be in goal to try and stop Jamie Vardy scoring.
The Leicester striker has scored in each of his last three Premier League matches against Spurs and since the start of the 2014/15 season, Vardy has scored more Premier League goals against ‘big six’ teams than any other player with 31.
Christian Eriksen is on the bench for Spurs and Dele Alli, who started for Tottenham in the 2-2 Champions League draw with Olympiakos, is missing having only recently returned to first team action.
It was at the King Power Stadium in 2015 where he scored his first goal for Tottenham.
