Ben Davies backs Tottenham and Wales team-mate Gareth Bale to rediscover his best form after netting just once since his Premier League return... and insists Real Madrid man 'doesn't need to prove anything'

Ben Davies has backed Gareth Bale to show his best form this season and talked up the positive impact he has had off the pitch at Tottenham.

The Welsh pair are set to start for Spurs on Thursday at LASK, where a point will be enough to secure progression from Group J into the last 32 of the Europa League.

Bale has only scored once so far since his September return to north London on loan from Real Madrid, and has largely been restricted to a bit-part role in the Premier League, but Davies feels his compatriot has nothing to prove.
