The Tottenham team that should start the midweek tie in Manchester

Tottenham Defensive Set-up for United

We do not anticipate any changes in the Tottenham defense, as Conte sticks with his top line for this big Premier League contest.

Left-back – Ben Davies

Despite a couple of questionable fouls, Ben Davies looked strong against Everton. Davies was aggressive defensively and found times to move forward and add to the attack. Expect Davies to get a little run until the next European affair.

Center-back – Eric Dier

Like Son and Kane, Eric Dier is likely starting at center back, barring injury or illness. Dier has made a few mistakes in the last couple of weeks, but no one is perfect; on the whole, Dier has been better than worse. Regardless of who United plays up front, expect the Red Devils to try and get Dier out of position with off-the-ball movement, which good communication can help overcome.

Right-back – Cristian Romero

Slowly creeping back to his top form, Cristian Romero made some big, timely tackles against Everton. At his best, Romero can snuff out attacks before they happen, and it looks like he is getting close to that point again.

Goalkeeper – Hugo Lloris

With back-to-back League shutouts, Hugo Lloris has been playing well. Admittedly the shutout against Brighton was more impressive than the one against Everton, where Lloris was not credited with a save. However, there were times when Lloris was called into action, and the Frenchman was ready. He should expect Wednesday to be more like Brighton or even Eintracht Frankfurt, where a few big saves helped win the day.

So there is the 3-5-2 we think Conte needs to use; who would you start to beat Manchester United at Old Trafford?
