Tottenham predicted team vs West Ham - Ange Postecoglou makes one change after double injury boost

Here is the Tottenham team we are expecting Ange Postecoglou to select for Saturday's Premier League clash against West Ham

by · football.london

Things look a lot better for Ange Postecoglou and Tottenham on the injury front heading into Saturday's Premier League encounter against West Ham. Spurs have been missing some notable players in recent weeks, with Son Heung-min, Richarlison and Wilson Odobert all facing time in the treatment room.

While it does appear that Odobert will make his comeback in training next week, Son and Richarlison are in a position to return to the Tottenham squad against West Ham. That in turn gives Postecoglou a big lift heading into the London derby as the team look to get back to winning ways.

Tottenham were on the losing side last time out after surrendering a two-goal lead away at Brighton & Hove Albion. The defeat on the south coast left a sour taste in the mouth and the team were unable to put things right on the pitch with the international break taking place.

Having two weeks to stew on the Brighton defeat, Postecoglou will be expecting an instant response in Saturday's game against West Ham. Not only do Tottenham need to win after what happened at the Amex 13 days ago, they also need the points to ensure they don't fall even further behind in the race for Champions League football.

So how exactly will Tottenham line up in the lunchtime game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium? Here is the team we expect Postecoglou to select for the showdown against the Hammers.

Rodrigo Bentancur

Rodrigo Bentancur was another who was poor away at Brighton and that leaves Ange Postecoglou with a call to make over the Uruguayan or Yves Bissouma in midfield. Bentancur has spent the past fortnight at Hotspur Way and that might tip things in his favour.(Image: Malcolm Couzens/Getty Images)

Dejan Kulusevski

James Maddison

James Maddison has enjoyed a really strong start to the 2024/25 season and he's an automatic pick in the side.

Brennan Johnson

Brennan Johnson will be looking to make it eight goals in eight successive games for club and country this weekend.
