Tottenham Bench and Full XI

Tottenham is in their regular 4-2-3-1 formation, although the way Kane plays it is often a 4-2-4. Expect Dele to push up and Kane to drop deep and then the pair to switch and work to keep Zagreb off-balance, all the while looking for Bergwijn over the top.

Tottenham Bench

Tottenham has the full 12-man Europa League bench, which means a mix of the veterans like Joe Hart and Gareth Bale, along with some of the kinds in Marcel Lavinier and Dane Scarlett. The biggest news about the bench is really that Giovani Lo Celso is back on it and hopefully gets a chance to run around for at least 30 minutes.

To expect more than that from Lo Celso is likely not fair, but for him to provide an impact – even off the bench – on Sunday, a few minutes Thursday can really help.

Hart – Sanchez – Son – Vinicius – Bale – Moura – Sissoko – Doherty – Reguilon – Scarlett – Lavinier – Lo Celso
