Tottenham will welcome manager Antonio Conte back for their trip to Leicester today and all the action will be live on talkSPORT 2.
The Italian was absent for the club’s 1-0 win over Manchester City after undergoing surgery to remove his gallbladder.
But Conte has already returned to London to oversee Tottenham’s training and will take his place on the bench against Leicester.
Spurs are just one point out of the top four and will be looking to make it three straight Premier League wins.
Meanwhile, Leicester will be out for revenge following their 6-2 defeat in the reverse fixture.
The Foxes picked up their first top-flight win of 2023 with a 4-2 win at Aston Villa that continued their march away from the relegation zone.

Leicester-Tottenham: What has been said?
Kane has been urged to join trophy-seeking Bayern Munich rather than stay at Spurs.
Speaking on the White and Jordan show, Danny Murphy said: “He’s not going to win anything decent with Tottenham.
They’re not even close to that, are they? The thing is, it depends on where your options are.
“There are rumors about Bayern Munich, who have won three Bundesliga titles and maybe a Champions League, which is possible, they are one of the best teams in Europe.
“And to be Tottenham’s all-time top scorer and to be one of England’s all-time top scorers and to be one of the best scorers the Premier League has ever seen, it’s still a great way to be remembered.
“And I think the trophy at the end, which will most likely go to a club like Munich, is more beneficial to him personally when he’s done and he looks back, than perhaps breaking the Premier League record.”
