How Tottenham Hotspur could line up against Leeds United

sportsmole.co.uk, 6 May 2021, 15:24
Tottenham Hotspur will again be without the services of Ben Davies for Saturday's Premier League clash with Leeds United at Elland Road.

Davies remains on the sidelines with a calf problem, but Giovani Lo Celso is expected to shake off the knock that he picked up during the 4-0 win over Sheffield United last weekend.

Harry Winks is on standby to feature in the starting XI if Lo Celso cannot recover, but it seems likely that interim boss Ryan Mason will name the same side that took to the field against the Blades.

Gareth Bale scored three times against the league's bottom club, and the Wales international should retain his spot in the final third of the field, with Son Heung-min, Dele Alli and Harry Kane also starting.

Toby Alderweireld had fallen out of favour under Jose Mourinho, but the Belgium international has been reinstated since Mason replaced the Portuguese, and he should again feature at the back at Elland Road.

Tanguy Ndombele, Lucas Moura, Erik Lamela and Steven Bergwijn should all start on the bench for the capital club, who are currently sixth in the table, five points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.

Moussa Sissoko and fit-again Matt Doherty will also be in the squad, but neither player are in serious contention to start, with Serge Aurier set to retain his spot at right-back for the North London club.

Tottenham possible starting lineup: Lloris; Aurier, Alderweireld, Dier, Reguilon; Lo Celso, Hojbjerg; Son, Dele, Bale; Kane
