Tottenham Hotspur will lock horns with Crystal Palace on Wednesday night, hoping to pick up all three points away from home. The hosts will be coming into the match on the back of a 2-0 victory over Bournemouth, whereas the Lilywhites recorded a 2-0 loss to Aston Villa.
Antonio Conte will probably opt for the 3-4-3 formation this weekend; however, he might make a couple of changes for the upcoming clash as Dejan Kulusevski looks likely to make his way back into the starting line-up.
3-4-3 Tottenham Hotspur Predicted Lineup Vs Crystal Palace
Defence
Hugo Lloris will operate between the sticks for the upcoming fixture. The France shot-stopper would hope to put up a strong performance and secure a clean sheet on Wednesday.
Cristian Romero will form the centre-half partnership with Eric Dier, and Ben Davies at the heart of Spurs’ backline.
Ryan Sessegnon should start at the left wing-back position, whereas Matt Doherty will fill in on the other flank as the right wing-back. The full-backs will be expected to stay compact and keep their shape defensively.
Midfield
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg might start in the holding midfield position and could be assigned more of a defensive role to shield the away side’s back four.
Oliver Skipp will slot into the central midfield role, determined to set up some clear-cut goal-scoring chances for the frontmen.
Attack
Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski will take up the wide positions, playing on the left and right wing, respectively.
Harry Kane will lead the line for Tottenham Hotspur in midweek. The England international will be hoping to get his name on the scoresheet when he faces off against the Palace defence that has conceded nine goals in their last five matches across all competitions.
Bryan Gil could come off the bench to make a cameo appearance in the second forty-five minutes of the match if needed.
