Predicted Tottenham XI to face Aston Villa in the FA Cup – Mathys Tel starts
Spurs will be hoping to get back to winning ways when they face the Villans away from home at Villa Park. Let’s take a look at our predicted Tottenham XI to face Aston Villa in the FA Cup.
Predicted Tottenham XI to face Aston Villa in the FA Cup
Goalkeeper – Antonin Kinsky: Despite conceding four against Liverpool, Antonin Kinsky did make a couple of impressive saves that prevented the scoreline from being worse on the night. With this being a must-win game, there is no room for rotation.
Right-back – Pedro Porro: Of all times to rest Porro, manager Ange Postecoglou chose one of the club’s biggest games yet, still can’t get my head around it. We expect he will make a return to the starting XI this weekend against Villa.
Centre-back – Ben Davies: van de Ven and Cristian Romero still do not look like they will be making a return anytime soon. In their absence, Davies has performed well. We will need another reliable performance from him if we are to make it through.
Centre-back – Kevin Danso: Despite conceding four against Liverpool, Danso’s debut was still impressive. The centre-back did manage to slot in seamlessly after just a short period at the club. It will be nice for him to pick up his first clean sheet this weekend.
Left-back – Djed Spence: Archie Gray, needs a rest and Djed looks like he can’t stop running. He has been really impressive this season and it is nice to see him fight for this club. He should continue on the left.
