Tottenham Hotspur Predicted XI against Brighton
Tottenham Hotspur and Brighton will be going head-to-head this Saturday. Both teams will be looking to put three points on the board. A victory for the Lilywhites will help them get closer to their dream of a Premier League title.
They have been in solid form winning three out of their last five games. Key performances from Richarlison and Son Heung-min have allowed the team to rack up 36 points for the season. They have played one game less and are six points behind league leaders Liverpool.
Due to their ongoing injury struggles Ange Postecoglou’s squad selection can at times be somewhat unusual. As we come closer to their game against Brighton now looks like the right time to predict the Australian coach’s starting XI.
We will most likely see Ange go with his usual 4-2-3-1 formation against Brighton. For his defensive line, he is likely to go with Ben Davies and Eric Dier at centre-back with Emerson Royal and Pedro Porro playing the role of fullbacks.
The middle line is expected to feature Pape Matar Sarr and Oliver Skipp playing a defensive role. Meanwhile, Dejan Kulusevski, Son Heung-min and Brennan Johnson will most probably be leading from the front.
The lone attacker playing as a centre-forward will be none other than Richarlison. The Brazilian striker has been phenomenal and has scored four goals over his last three games.
