On Monday evening, Tottenham and Chelsea will clash in a highly anticipated London derby, set to ignite the atmosphere at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in North London. Tottenham are riding high as they remain undefeated for the tenth fixture in the Premier League after a 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace, instilling confidence as they approach this London derby.
Ange Postecoglu will opt for a 4-3-3 formation and could make a single change to his starting XI for this game. Brennan Johnson will spearhead the attack for his side as Richarlison drops to the bench to make way for him.
4-3-3 Tottenham Hotspur Predicted XI Vs Chelsea
Defence
Guglielmo Vicario will operate in goal for Spurs after keeping a clean sheet in his last Premier League outing. Cristian Romero will continue to play alongside Micky van de Ven at the heart of Tottenham’s backline as they look to keep the Fulham forwards at bay during the game.
Pedro Porro will be a nailed-on starter at right-back while Destiny Udogie hopes to catch the eye on the other flank as the left-back. Postecoglu will ask both of them to keep things solid at the back and get forward to create opportunities in the front.
Ben Davies and Emerson Royal will offer cover for the defensive positions on the bench.
Midfield
James Maddison, Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr will operate in the middle of the park as they look to make life tough for the opposition at the centre of the park. Maddison will have to carry most of the creative burden for Tottenham in the final third.
Pierre Emile-Hojbjerg will have to take a spot on the bench and wait for his chance to impress in the second half in needed.
Attack
Heung-Min Son will work his magic from the left while Dejan Kulusevski gives a good account of himself from the right-flank.
Brennan Johnson will lead the charge at North London as he looks to get his name on the scoresheet having failed to register a goal in his last outing.
Richarlison will be named on the bench as he waits for his chance to make an impact in the latter stages if told to do so.
