Tottenham Hotspur produced a fine display of free-flowing attacking football to upset Chelsea 3-1 at Wembley in the Premier League on Saturday.
The Lilywhites face a tough test at home once again when they play host to Inter Milan on Wednesday.
Mauricio Pochettino’s men managed to keep their Champions League campaign afloat with a hard-fought 2-1 win over PSV Eindhoven on Matchday 4.
Spurs will need to win both their remaining games and hope for the other results to go their way if they are to make it to the knockout stages of the Champions League.
Spurs are likely to be without the services of Kieran Trippier and Danny Rose, both of whom are ruled out due to groin injuries while Davinson Sanchez (thigh) and Mousa Dembele (ankle) are set to miss Wednesday’s clash. Vincent Janssen is a long-term absentee with a foot injury.
Jan Vertonghen has recovered from his injury and is likely to push for a place in the eleven for the Champions League tie.
He didn’t have too much to do in the last match but he will need to be at the top of his game against Inter Milan.
The Ivorian dealt very well with the threat of Eden Hazard at the weekend and he should continue in the absence of Trippier.
The Belgian has been in good form in recent weeks and will be expected to put in another solid shift in central defence.
The Belgian is expected to return to the starting line-up to replace Juan Foyth who has been a bit shaky at the back.
He did a good job defensively and looked comfortable with the ball at his feet against Chelsea.
The Englishman put in a solid performance in central midfield against Chelsea, closing down the attackers and cutting out the attacks.
The Frenchman was a standout figure in midfield in the 3-1 win over Chelsea, dominating the midfield with his tenacity, tackling and passing.
He is the key playmaker for Spurs and they will need him to rise to the occasion on Wednesday.
The English youngster made a lot of difference to the attack against Chelsea, getting in behind the defence and worked the half-spaces really well. He got a goal to show for his efforts and will be in high spirits for this one.
The Korean was a lively figure in the final third and scored with a superb solo run and Spurs will be expecting similar display from him.
Spurs will need their talisman to fire on all cylinders if they are to come away with a win in the do-or-die clash.
