Tottenham Hotspur predicted lineup vs. Galatasaray: Europa League

Tottenham Hotspur will aim to win their fourth Europa League game in a row when they travel to RAMS Park in Istanbul, Turkey to take on Galatasaray.

Ange Postecoglou’s side are coming off the back of a 4-1 thrashing against Aston Villa in the Premier League. Despite going 1-0 down in the first half, Tottenham battled back to secure the comfortable victory in the end with Dominic Solanke scoring his seventh goal of the season in all competitions.

Spurs are one of the three remaining teams in the Europa League stage to have won their first three games, along with Lazio and RSC Anderlecht. Tottenham claimed wins over Qarabağ FK, Ferencváros and AZ Alkmaar to climb into second place in the table, but face a tough task of seeing off a solid Galatasaray side in what is expected to be a hostile environment.

Postecoglou will be without key players such as Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero and Richarlison due to injuries ahead of the international break in November.

Here’s how Spurs could line up against Galatasaray in the Europa League.

GK: Fraser Forster-Postecoglou could look to rest Guglielmo Vicario as Tottenham have already secured nine points and are on course to qualify for the knockout stages.

RB: Archie Gray– The former Leeds United player is at right-back in place of Pedro Porro, looking to impress on the right side of the backline.

CB: Radu Drăgușin-The Romanian national team player starts for the second game in a row, both Romero and van de Ven out of injury.

CB: Ben Davies-Davies has got used to playing at left center back and should fill up alongside Drăgușin in the next few games.

LB: Destiny Udogie– While Postecoglou would probably prefer to rest Udogie, the current injuries in his squad mean that the young full-back is ready to start again in the back line.

CM: Yves Bissouma-The veteran midfielder takes on the deeper role, sitting just in front of the backline to cover, while Maddison and Bergvall drive upfield to help in attack.

CM: James Maddison– Maddison looks set to recreate his picture-perfect free-kick he scored against Aston Villa to help lift Spurs to three points.

CM: Lucas Bergvall—The 18-year-old will make his fourth start of the season in what should provide valuable experience playing in a tough away environment.

RW: Mikey Moore-The talented youngster will be keen to prove himself again on the wing, with from the jump on the right side rather than on the left wing.

ST: Will Lankshear-With Richarlison out for the next few weeks and Solanke playing the full 90 minutes at the weekend, 19-year-old Will Lankshear should lead the line for the second time this season.

LW: Son Heung-min– The Tottenham captain played just 56 minutes against Aston Villa and should be confirmed to start in the midweek contest.
