Predicted Tottenham XI vs Man United: Ange Postecoglou set to make changes
Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to make it back-to-back wins in all competitions when they host Manchester United in the quarter-finals of the League Cup on Thursday evening.
Spurs will head into the tie on the back of a 5-0 victory at Southampton in the Premier League. It followed a draw with Rangers at Ibrox in the Europa League
Tottenham were superb against relegation-threatened Southampton last weekend, and manager Postecoglou will be keen on his players maintaining that high level.
United beat Manchester City in the Premier League in their last game and will be tricky opponents.
Predicted Tottenham Hotspur XI vs Manchester United
With first-choice goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario still injured, Fraser Forster will keep his place in goal.
Forster has done well for Tottenham, and he must be on top form against United.
Postecoglou may not risk Destiny Udogie against United, and Djed Spence will likely replace him at left-back. Spence did well against Southampton last weekend.
Pedro Porro will be deployed at right-back. With Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero still injured, Radu Dragusin and Archie Gray will keep their places in central defence.
Rodrigo Bentancur is still suspended, but Yves Bissouma is back from his ban. The Mali international midfielder will be deployed alongside Pape Matar Sarr in holding midfield.
Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison and Heung-min Son will be the three attacking midfielders. Dominic Solanke will lead the line.
How Tottenham could line up vs Manchester United
Predicted Tottenham predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Forster; Porro, Dragusin, Gray, Spence; Bissouma, Sarr; Kulusevski, Maddison, Son; Solanke.
