Jose Mourinho made a winning start to his reign as Tottenham Hotspur manager with a 3-2 win at West Ham United on Saturday.

Goals from, Son Heung-min, Lucas Moura and Harry Kane secured the Portuguese boss an opening three points.

Now the 56-year-old turns his attention to the Champions League and a first home match in charge against Olympiakos.

Spurs are currently second in Group B and know a win against the Greek side will see them book their spot in the last-16.

Mourinho, who has won the competition with both FC Porto and Inter Milan, will want to take the North London side that one step further than last term when they were defeated by Liverpool in the final.

But who will the ‘Humble One’ pick to line-up in his second match in charge?

An injury to Ben Davies means he will be forced to make one change with Danny Rose, who took the Welshman’s place when he limped off at West Ham, expected to step in.

Davies picked up an injury in Saturday’s victory.

Elsewhere, Hugo Lloris (elbow), Michel Vorm (calf) and Erik Lamela (hamstring) are still all out injured, while Tangy Ndombele and Jan Vertonghen are also doubts.

This means Paulo Gazzaniga will keep his place in goal again behind Serge Aurier, Davinson Sanchez and Toby Alderweireld.

Ahead of them, Eric Dier and Harry Winks should continue in midfield, behind the attacking threat of Dele Alli, Moura, Son and Kane.

Predicted XI: Gazzaniga; Aurier, Sanchez, Alderweireld, Rose; Dier, Winks, Alli; Moura, Son, Kane.
