This week, Tottenham's Son was in top form, scoring a goal in their midweek game. However, the team is facing a challenging situation as they prepare to face Leicester City in the Premier League today. Injuries have plagued the team, leaving them in 15th place and eight points away from the relegation zone. But with a home game against a struggling Leicester, there is a chance for Tottenham to regain some confidence.
Unfortunately, the injury list continues to grow as Dominic Solanke joined the sidelines this week with a knee injury. The former Bournemouth striker has been a key player for Tottenham this season, scoring seven Premier League goals. He also missed the Europa League match against Hoffenheim on Thursday and is expected to be out of action for up to six weeks.
Defenders Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven have also had their fair share of injuries this season. Although they are back in training, they will not be able to play against Ruud van Nistelrooy's side on Sunday. Manager Postecoglou explained in a press conference on Friday that they still need more time to train with the team and regain their fitness. However, having them back on the training ground has been a boost for the team.
Destiny Udogie is another player still out with an injury, but he may return for Tottenham's match against Manchester United next month. Yves Bissouma, Djed Spence, and Pape Sarr are also doubtful for Sunday's game, while Brennan Johnson and Timo Werner are still recovering from calf and hamstring problems respectively.
Looking ahead, goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario is expected to make his return at the end of February, while January signing Antonin Kinsky will continue to guard the net. As for the upcoming game, Tottenham vs Leicester will not be broadcasted on TV in the UK, but fans can follow the live updates on Metro's matchday blog.
In terms of the lineup, Kinsky is predicted to start in goal, with Porro, Dragusin, Davies, and Reguilon in defense. Bentancur, Bergvall, and Maddison are expected to control the midfield, while Kulusevski, Son, and Richarlison lead the attack. It will be an important game for Tottenham as they look to climb up the Premier League table and regain their form.
