CHRIS SUTTON’S BIG MATCH ANALYSIS

THREE KEY CLASHES

-

HARRY KANE v SERGIO RAMOS

What a test this will be for Kane. Ramos (right) has been the best centre half in world football in recent seasons, captaining Real Madrid to three consecutiv­e Champions League wins. Tottenham have been OK so far this season without being all guns blazing but Kane finally scored in August. This will be a big battle between the two main men.

JOHN STONES v ALVARO MORATA

Morata looked like he might leave Chelsea in the summer as new manager Maurizio Sarri chased Gonzalo Higuain, so you can imagine that left him low on confidence. Stones (right) went up against Morata in the Community Shield at Wembley and comfortabl­y won the battle so that will give him a positive mindset. Morata will have to relish the challenge and show up.

DELE ALLI v SERGIO BUSQUETS

Spain tend to control midfield against most sides and Busquets (right) is their most influentia­l man. This game could be decided on whether he is allowed to dominate. Alli will have to be alert whenever he’s in his vicinity. Alli’s form wasn’t the greatest last season but we know he is a very talented player who can make his mark on any game. He will be key for England tonight.
