Tottenham lineup vs. Ferencvaros: Predicted XI for Europa League clash

Will Son return? Predicted Tottenham lineup vs. Ferencvaros

Tottenham Hotspur will be without five players for Thursday's Europa League clash with Ferencvaros at the Groupama Arena in Budapest.

Radu Dragusin is suspended after being sent off in the seventh minute of Spurs' Europa League opener against Qarabag last week (3-0 win), while Richarlison (calf) and Wilson Odobert (hamstring) remain sidelined with injuries.

Ange Postecoglou has also confirmed that Destiny Udogie, who was taken off at half time in Tottenham's 3-0 Premier League win at Manchester United on Sunday with a thigh problem, will not be involved on Sunday, and the same applies for Son Heung-min, who missed out entirely at the weekend due to a hamstring issue.

The Spurs boss will consider making some changes to his starting lineup, with Archie Gray potentially being recalled at right-back at the expense of Pedro Porro, while Ben Davies is set to start at left-back in the absence of Udogie.

Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven - the latter of whom produced a barnstorming run through Man United's midfield to provide an assist for Tottenham's opening goal last weekend - are the only two first-team centre-back options available to Postecoglou and are therefore set to continue in the first XI.

Yves Bissouma, Pape Matar Sarr and Lucas Bergvall will all be pushing for starts in midfield, with Dejan Kulusevski, Rodrigo Bentancur and James Maddison potentially given a rest, while Brennan Johnson - who has scored in each of his last four appearances - Timo Werner and Mikey Moore are all set to battle for starts in attack with Dominic Solanke.

Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup: Vicario; Gray, Romero, Van de Ven, Davies; Sarr, Bissouma, Bergvall; Johnson, Solanke, Werner
