Tottenham will be looking to get nothing less than three points when they take on an out of form Bournemouth in the next match in the Premier League. Spurs have looked good in the last couple of matches and will be looking to clinch their maiden Premier League title this season after losing out to Chelsea in the last term.
The North London club are much more focussed on their mega clash against the Spanish champions Real Madrid in the Champions League next week and might look to rest some of their main players in the match against the Cherries this weekend. However, they will also try not to lose the advantage from their wins in the last couple of matches and will hope to have a good outing on their home turf.
Keeping their clash against the Galacticos in mind, Spurs will be looking to rest important players like Christian Eriksen and Serge Aurier, who were absent from the team in their last match against Huddersfield, following a red card in the match versus West Ham United.
Here is how Pochettino might field his troops:
Defence-
Spurs are closer to having their first choice left back Danny Rose back in the squad as the player is recovering from a prolonged injury. However, he might not be missed much, as the gaffer Mauricio Pochettino is set to deploy the three-man defence once more, which has brought them rich dividends once more.
There is not going to be any change, as all the three defenders, Toby Alderweireld, Davinson Sanchez and Jan Vertonghen, are fit and raring to take on the Cherries. Hugo Lloris will be playing on goal.
Midfield-
With full-backs, Kieran Trippier and Ben Davies playing out of their skins, the North London club will look to make it difficult for the Bournemouth defenders. They might once again use a four-man midfield, with English international Harry Winks and Eric Dier set to form a partnership at the heart of the midfield and lead the side to their third consecutive victory.
Attack-
The onus will once again be on the English international Harry Kane, who scored a brace in their last match against Huddersfield Town. However, he might not have Eriksen by his side in the match against Bournemouth.
But Dele Alli, who is set to miss the European encounter, might be playing alongside Heung Min Son this weekend as they fight for three crucial points.
Predicted Lineup-
Lloris, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Trippier, Winks, Dier, Davies, Dele, Son, Kane.
