How Huddersfield Town could line up against Tottenham Hotspur

How Huddersfield could line up against Spurs

Huddersfield Town's task does not get any easier as the Premier League's bottom-placed side play host to Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday afternoon.

The Terriers have collected just two points from a possible 18 so far, seeing them prop up the rest of the division with the joint-worst goal difference.

There are a number of selection decisions to be made by boss David Wagner for this fourth home match of the season, with the German admitting to being unhappy with the "big mistakes" made during last week's 3-1 loss at Leicester City.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how Huddersfield could line up for this weekend's match.


Out: Ramadan Sobhi (knee)

Huddersfield's only confirmed absentee for Saturday's showdown is Egyptian winger Sobhi, as Jonathan Hogg is back involved following his three-match ban for a needless sending-off against Cardiff City.

Hogg watched on from the bench at the King Power Stadium, with Wagner favouring a five-man backline, and the German is expected to go with the same formation for the visit of Spurs.

That will likely mean Aaron Mooy and Phillip Billing being used in central midfield, with Rajiv van La Parra and Elias Kachunga continuing in the wide areas.

Laurent Depoitre has yet to get off the mark in front of goal this season, but he claimed an assist on his first start of the season last time out and could retain his spot up top on Saturday.

There is a decision to be made at right-back, meanwhile, as Florent Hadergjonaj will be pushing for a recall after losing out to Eric Durm in the Leicester loss.
