How Tottenham Hotspur could line up against Everton

How Spurs could line up against Everton

Tottenham Hotspur travel to Goodison Park to face Everton on Sunday looking to build on a midweek North London derby victory.

Spurs picked up only their second ever win at the Emirates Stadium to dump Arsenal out of the EFL Cup, setting up a semi-final showdown with Chelsea in the process.

Mauricio Pochettino's side go into the game having lost just one of their last 12 matches across all competitions - a run which has helped them up to third in the Premier League table.

Here, Sports Mole looks at how they could line up on Merseyside.


Out: Eric Dier (appendix), Jan Vertonghen (thigh), Mousa Dembele (ankle), Victor Wanyama (knee), Vincent Janssen (foot) Doubtful: Davinson Sanchez (hamstring), Serge Aurier (groin)

Harry Kane is expected to return to the starting lineup after beginning the midweek derby on the bench, although he did come on as a sub and made an immediate impact with an assist for Dele Alli.

Alli was the star of the show at the Emirates and will continue in the team, while Son Heung-min will also be hopeful of retaining his place after opening the scoring against the Gunners.

Doubts remain over Christian Eriksen's ability to play game-in, game-out due to stomach problems, though, and both Lucas Moura and Erik Lamela are on standby if the Dane is ruled out.

There could be a timely return for Davinson Sanchez, who has been sidelined with a hamstring injury, which will allow Ben Davies to play in his more familiar position of left-back, having been in the middle for the past two games.
