Good evening, all, and welcome to our LIVE commentary of Partizan Belgrade v Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League.

Vertonghen concedes the corner under pressure from Lazovic.

Ball in from Lennon, claimed by goalkeeper Lukac.

Townsend is looking lively in these opening exchanges.

Free-kick to the hosts - Drincic takes it from the left flank, but it sails into safety.

The Partizan fans don't seem to have noticed that early chance. Lots of very loud singing still.

Early corner, and early chance for Harry Kane! Davies's corner comes from he right, headed on by Vertonghen, and Kane does well to switch it to his preferred foot and lashes it against the woodwork.

Kick-off! Lots of noise and flag-waving from the home fans.

The players are out and shaking hands prior to the match.

Looks like a beautiful sunny evening, and the stands are sparsely filled so far.

TEAMS, then - Partizan: Lukac, Volkov, Vulicevic, Stankovic, Cirkovic, B.Ilic, Grbic, Drincic, S.Ilic, Pantic, Lazovic. Subs: R. Ilic, Volkov, Ninkovic, Sretenovic, Jojic, M. Scepovic, Mitrovic. ///Tottenham: Lloris, Naughton, Fazio, Vertonghen, Davies, Bentaleb, Stambouli, Lennon, Palinho, Townsend, Kane. Subs: Vorm, Chiriches, Dier, Capoue, Eriksen, Lamela, Soldado.

The team news before the game was relatively limited: Petar Skuletic is suspended for the hosts; and as I said earlier, Emmanuel Adebayor, Younes Kaboul, Mousa Dembele, Nacer Chadli and Danny Rose have all remained at home, while a hip injury keeps full-back Kyle Walker out of the Group C encounter. Roberto Soldado is a possibility after recovering from an issue with his neck and back, while goalkeeper Michel Vorm and centre-back Federico Fazio could make their Tottenham debuts.

And for fashion fans, the word is the Tottenham players will be wearing their third kit tonight - all yellow.

Pochettino: "We have much information on Partizan, a big club with a great history. We all know that they are a very good team who play with a good philosophy and we expect a tough game. They are top of the Serbian league and they have a lot of talent, lots of good players.”

Mauricio Pochettino has downplayed concerns racist abuse could scar Tottenham's Europa League clash against Partizan Belgrade, with the head coach insisting the vile taunts aimed at Danny Rose two years ago had no bearing on his or anyone else's absence - https://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/news/football-pochettino-makes-use-large-squad-053617819--sow.html
