How Tottenham Hotspur could line up against Huddersfield Town

Sports Mole predicts how Tottenham may line up for their trip to Huddersfield Town this weekend.

Tottenham Hotspur are going in search of back-to-back Premier League wins when they take on Huddersfield Town at the John Smith's Stadium on Saturday.

The Lilywhites have put successive defeats behind them to move back up to fifth place in the table, six points behind leaders Liverpool.

Next up for Mauricio Pochettino's men is a trip to West Yorkshire to face the division's bottom side, who are winless so far and stuck on just two points from six matches.

Ahead of this weekend's clash, Sports Mole predicts how Tottenham could line up.



Out: Christian Eriksen (abdomen), Michel Vorm (knee), Vincent Janssen (foot)
Doubtful: Hugo Lloris (thigh), Serge Aurier (thigh)

Pochettino will wait until Friday before making a decision on skipper Lloris's involvement, with the Frenchman closing in on a return after a month-long absence.

Back-up keeper Vorm is a confirmed absentee with an untimely knee injury, so Paulo Gazzaniga is in contention for a third successive start if Lloris is not risked.

Tottenham will definitely be without playmaker Eriksen, meanwhile, as the Denmark international injured his abdomen in the 2-1 win at Brighton & Hove Albion and is in a race against time to be fit in time for next week's visit of Barcelona.

The form of Erik Lamela and Lucas Moura makes that less of a concern - the latter scoring three goals in his last five, compared to four in 33 last season, while Moura has the same number of goals from one more appearance.

Lucas has started each of Tottenham's six league games this season, but with Son Heung-min and Dele Alli also in contention, and one eye on the midweek showdown with Barcelona, Pochettino may freshen things up and leave the Brazilian out.

Aurier is expected to miss out entirely due to a knock picked up against Watford in the EFL Cup, though rotation at right-back and left-back was always likely to happen this weekend.
