Spurs know that anything less than a win against Ludogorets tonight will leave them an uphill battle to reach the knockout stages of the Europa League.
A 1-0 loss to Royal Antwerp last month left Group G with all to play halfway, with Spurs, Belgians and LINZ all with six points.
The ludogorets are the drivers of the group, but José Mourinho will seek that there are no more lapses.
Tottenham line-up (4-2-3-1): Hart, Doherty, Sánchez, Tanganga, Davies (C), Winks, Ndombele, Dele, Lucas, Bale, Vinicius

FULL TIME | Tottenham 4-0 Ludogorets |
90 minutes: Four minutes will be added; no need for that, right, ref?
Harry Winks plays Scarlett with a ball that creaks overhead, but can’t lift it over the goalie.
81 minutes: Yes, yes, José Mourinho is making a triple change, even in goal. Alfie Whiteman replaces Joe Hart, while 16-year-old Dane Scarlett will also debut in his place, in place of Dele Alli.

OBJECTIVE! | Tottenham 4-0 Ludogorets | For Lucas Moura 73 ‘
Oh darling. The visitors own their own downfall here, giving away possession at the edge of their own box, but they give the Spurs credit for how they punish them.
Dele Alli crosses Vinicius, who controls very well and finds Lucas in the space to finish off.

Dan Kilpatrick is at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
The expression on Winks’ face, somewhere between amusement and embarrassment, suggests that the target was unintentional. Still, it’s not every day you find the top corner from 50 odd yards.
67 minutes: BT Sport says it came in from 56 yards. Winks’ reaction tells you that he never meant it in a million years.
OBJECTIVE! | Tottenham 3-0 Ludogorets | Harry Winks 63 ‘
Harry Winks is all smiles because this is a monstrous target from miles away. He’s right on the left touchline, not too far into the middle of Ludogorets. He looks up, sees Bale running behind diagonally, and ends up punching the top corner through the bar and post.
62 minutes: With a yellow card, Ndombele is the first man to retire when Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg enters the fray.
