Richarlison starts again?: Spurs will destroy Sporting CP with this destructive 3-4-3 formation
Tottenham defeated Marseille last week, and since their most recent Premier League match was postponed, their next Champions League match will be against Sporting CP.
This unwelcomed break will be of great assistance to Antonio Conte’s squad, as the match against Marseille was fairly even.
They defeated the French team 2-0, and they will be eager to continue their winning streak.
Tottenham and Sporting will meet for the first time, and the odds heavily favor Antonio Conte’s squad.
Spurs should expect a relatively easy victory given their current form and the fact that Sporting conceded 11 goals at home in the Champions League last season.
This weekend Spurs were scheduled to play Manchester City, but that game has been postponed, allowing Antonio Conte to use all of the players who played against Marseille.
If not for the fact that they did did not play on Saturday, the Italian manager would have used a second-string te
am. However, since they did not play on Saturday, the manager will field his first-string squad.
Tottenham’s team news vs Sporting CP
Ben Davies has spent the last few games on the bench, as Lenglet has been the third central defender alongside Eric Dier and Sergio Romero.
Hojbjerg and Bentancur have resumed their central midfield partnership, but Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino also has Yves Bissouma at his disposal, so the summer signing could replace one of them.
Perisic assisted against Marseille, and we anticipate that he will continue to play this week.
The Croat has gradually replaced Sessegnon on the right wing, and Emerson Royal will play on the opposite side.
Richarlison scored twice in his first Champions League match, proving that Conte’s decision to sign him in the summer was not a gamble.
It is almost certain that the Brazilian will replace Kulusevski in the starting lineup on Tuesday, given his immense impact over the past few weeks.
Idealistically, Conte would have used this match to test his bench because Sporting is not a particularly formidable opponent, but since Spurs’ starters have been adequately rested, we expect the Spurs manager to make few substitutions.
Spurs predicted line up vs Sporting:
Predicted Starting Line up(3-4-2-1): Lloris; Lenglet, Romero, Eric Dier; Perisic, Royal, Bentancur, Hojbjerg/Bissouma; Son, Richarlison; Harry Kane.
