Tottenham will be hoping to complete the job and secure their place in the quarter-finals in the Europa League against Dinamo Zagreb tonight.
Jose Mourinho’s side hold a two-goal advantage heading to Croatia, and will therefore make changes from Sunday’s north London derby.
We expect four players that started at the Emirates will keep their places – with Davinson Sanchez partnering Eric Dier at the heart of the Tottenham defence, whilst Erik Lamela will start given he’s unable to face Aston Villa on Sunday.
The Spurs boss confirmed that Harry Kane will lead the attack, and we think he’ll be supported by Lucas Moura, Dele Alli and Lamela, whilst Moussa Sissoko and Harry Winks will be given a rare chance to impress.
It means that Europa League specialist, Carlos Vinicius, will have to settle for a place on the bench.
Here’s our predicted XI to face Zagreb – what’s yours? Let us know in the comments section below.
Hart, Aurier, Dier, Sanchez, Davies, Sissoko, Winks, Lucas, Alli, Lamela, Kane.
José has said Kane will start however I’d like to see us get a goal or two in the first half hour to finish the tie off and him replaced with Vinicus early on other than that I’d like to see Tanganga start

Without son I’m guessing he feels kane has to play as Jose does not trust the rest to get the job done.
Strawman argument. Kane was going to start anyway. We just need to be on the front foot early. We will continue to have the creativity problem until we fix fit. It is very sad when Erik Lamela and Kane are your most creative players, especially as it relates to Kane who will be deploy deeper today. This is a prime game to start Vinicius with Kane as the #10 and Vinny leading the line. If that does not work, then Kane can go up top and bring on Tanguy at the 10.
Why not play Kane and Vinicius, need a goal early to kill tie off
