After a thumping 4-0 win over Manchester City in the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur were held for a 2-2 draw by Roma in the Europa League. Their next challenge lies against Fulham in the domestic league this weekend.
Spurs are fifth on the points table with 19 points after 12 rounds of play. Hence, they will aim for nothing less than three points. A win alongside a couple of results in their favour could see them enter into the top four spots.
Defence
Fraser Forster has been in good form recently and he must be ready to take charge between the sticks once again. Right-back Pedro Porro didn’t put on a good display against Roma but is unlikely to face any heat.
Manager Ange Postecoglou has already confessed that defender Cristian Romero will not participate in the clash. The Argentine is still sidelined with a toe injury and must not be risked early.
With multiple injuries in the defensive unit, Ben Davies and Radu Dragusin are forming the centre-back duo once again. Destiny Udogie is likely to walk back at his original left-back position at the expense of Archie Gray.

Midfield
Yves Bissouma should be called up to take Rodrigo Bentancur’s place as the latter will serve his seven-match ban. The former will have the company of Pape Matar Sarr in the middle of the park. However, James Maddison could be making his comeback replacing Brennan Johnson.
No change in the offensive pack as while Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski are operating on the flanks, Dominic Solanke provides his services around the penalty box.
Mikey Moore (illness), Guglielmo Vicario (ankle), Micky van de Ven (hamstring), Richarlison (hamstring) and Wilson Odobert (hamstring) are all going to miss this tie due to the mentioned injuries.
