Tottenham have all to play for as they face PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League on Tuesday. The home side drew against the Dutch team in their reverse fixture, and a similar result would put us in danger of missing out on the group stage.
Mauricio Pochettino saw his side win against Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-2 on Saturday, but we again let go of a comfortable lead as we were 3-0 up in the second half.
Tottenham gave a couple of poor penalties away and such mistakes have to be avoided under all circumstances.
Pochettino has to make some changes to the team in hopes of keeping us fresh, and here is our predicted line-up for the Champions League tie.
Predicted Tottenham XI
Formation: 4-2-3-1
Manager: Mauricio Pochettino
Paulo Gazzaniga (GK)
Hugo Lloris is suspended for this game and we should see Gazzaniga start for us in between the sticks.
Kieran Trippier (RB)
Trippier didn’t have a great game on Saturday, but should get the nod ahead of Serge Aurier in this must-win clash.
Davinson Sanchez (CB)
Sanchez came on as a substitute in the last game and should be part of the starting XI on Tuesday.
Toby Alderweireld (CB)
The Belgian had a decent outing in the 3-2 win over Wolves and has to be at his best to keep the Dutch team in check.
Ben Davies (LB)
We aren’t sure of the time-frame for Danny Rose’s return so Davies should continue in the starting XI.
Harry Winks (CM)
Winks was great in our win over the Wolves and the Englishman should keep his spot in the team.
Moussa Sissoko (CM)
Mousa Dembele could be out for a while and that means more game time for Sissoko at Tottenham.
Son Heung-min (RAM)
The South Korean had to come on as an early sub and was replaced too. Hopefully, Son will be fresh for the game against the Dutch side.
Christian Eriksen (CAM)
The Dane got half an hour in our 3-2 win over Wolves, and Tottenham need him to be at his best against the Dutch side.
Lucas Moura (LAM)
Moura was amongst the scorers at the weekend and should be part of the starting XI against PSV.

Harry Kane (ST)
The Englishman scored in our previous game against Wolves and should lead the line on Tuesday night.
