Big guns return, 28-year-old on the bench – Possible Tottenham XI vs Fulham

Giovani Lo Celso remains Jose Mourinho’s only absentee for Tottenham’s London derby with Fulham on Wednesday night.

The Argentine has missed each of Spurs’ previous five matches in all competitions and remains sidelined, although the Portuguese confirmed that international colleague Erik Lamela is available and could be involved at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

We think that Mourinho is going to pick a familiar side, meaning he should recall the likes of Hugo Lloris, Eric Dier, Serge Aurier, Harry Winks, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Steven Bergwijn and Harry Kane.

Toby Alderweireld played the opening 45 minutes of the FA Cup tie against Marine, and will start, whilst Tanguy Ndombele and Heung Min Son, who were both unused substitute in Crosby, should both return to the starting XI.

Sergio Regulion was introduced as a late substitute against the Non-League outfit, and should get the nod over Ben Davies, whilst the likes of Dele Alli, Gareth Bale, and possibly the returning Erik Lamela, should all be on the bench.

Here’s the side that we think Mourinho will go with:

Predicted XI: Lloris, Aurier, Alderweireld, Dier, Regulion, Winks, Hojbjerg, Ndombele, Son, Bergwijn, Kane.
