    It's quite a chilly day at Wembley as the two teams come out onto the pitch. Atmosphere is good, though. I still struggle to see these as league games. Feels like a cup final.

    Tottenham are looking to set a new club record of scoring in 30 consecutive Premier League home games.

    However, they haven't kept a clean sheet in their last 11 games at Wembley.

    Goalless draw it is then?

  4. Better than Batistuta?published at 17:21 British Summer Time 16 September 2017

    On Wednesday night, Phil Neville likened Harry Kane to Ruud van Nistlerooy. Mauricio Pochettino says he can be better than Gabriel Batistuta. Lavish praise. Kane deserves it.

    He's Tottenham's talisman. Four goals in two matches show he's bang in form. He's also a natural leader for Spurs and England - a perfect role model.

    He likes scoring against Swansea too - three in five meetings - and I can't see anything but a home win now that the Wembley hoodoo has been blown away, especially with Dele Alli available after his European ban.

    The Swans will be better judged on forthcoming games against Watford, West Ham and Huddersfield.

    The way Tottenham dismantled Everton last week was very impressive. In contrast, Swansea really struggled against Newcastle.

    After seeing the Swans beat Crystal Palace, I was not too worried about Paul Clement's side getting dragged into the relegation battle this season - but any more complete non-performances like that would be a real cause for concern.

    Much has been made of Spurs' poor record at Wembley until they beat Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday.

    But even if they had stayed at White Hart Lane, it would have been a huge ask for them to repeat their results there last season when they won 17 and drew two of their 19 home league games.

    This is the kind of game I would expect Spurs to win comfortably, regardless of the venue.

    Lawro's prediction: 2-0

    Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has explained his team selection today: "The team is playing well in different shapes and situations. We're flexible and we try to give some freshness to the team.

    "The possibility to give minutes to the whole squad in this period because physical condition is so important in the Premier League."

    Straight into a bit of team news.

    Dele Alli, banned for Tottenham's Champions League win over Borussia Dortmund, is back in the starting line-up, one of three changes from that game.

    Moussa Sissoko and Kieran Trippier also start, with Serge Aurier, Ben Davies and Mousa Dembele dropping to the bench. Former Swansea striker Fernando Llorente joins them among the substitutes.

    Swansea make one change from the team beaten by Newcastle last week - Mike van der Hoorn replaces Leroy Fer.
