Toby Alderweireld returns to the Tottenham Hotspur starting line-up for this evening's trip to Brighton in the Premier League.

Alderweireld has been missing with a hamstring injury and it's his first Premier League start since October 28 and he hasn't played at all since the 2-2 draw with Rochdale in February.
Speculation is rife that Alderweireld will leave the club in the summer because Spurs won't match his wage demands and he has lost his place recently to summer signing Davinson Sanchez.
Dele Alli is out of the squad altogether with the FA Cup semi-final against Manchester United to come on Saturday so January signing Lucas Moura gets his first Premier League start alongside Christian Eriksen, Son Heung-min and Harry Kane in attack.
For Brighton there are two changes as captain Bruno comes in for Ezequiel Schelotto and Anthony Knockaert replaces Jurgen Locadia.
TEAMS IN FULL
Brighton - Ryan, Bruno, Duffy, Dunk, Bong, Knockaert, Kayal, Stephens, Izquierdo, Gross, Murray
Spurs - Lloris (C), Aurier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies, Wanyama, Sissoko, Eriksen, Lucas, Son, Kane
