Spurs Prepare for UEFA Super Cup Showdown Against PSG: Solanke's Return and Lineup Predictions
Tottenham are gearing up for their UEFA Super Cup showdown against Paris Saint-Germain, with hopes of having Dominic Solanke back in action. The Europa League champions are set to face the Champions League winners in Udine, aiming to kick off the new Premier League season on a positive note. Solanke has been sidelined with an ankle injury but is included in Spurs' squad for the Super Cup, with Richarlison likely to lead the attack if Solanke is not fully fit. Destiny Udogie is also in the squad, while Luka Vuskovic misses out.
In the absence of Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison, Thomas Frank must find a way to inject creativity into the midfield. Kulusevski is sidelined with a knee injury, while Maddison is facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines due to an ACL injury. Pape Matar Sarr could feature alongside Rodrigo Bentancur and Joao Palhinha in midfield, with Lucas Bergvall potentially coming into the side. Mohammed Kudus is expected to retain his spot on the right wing, while the left flank remains a point of contention with Brennan Johnson, Wilson Odobert, and Mathys Tel vying for a starting role.
The predicted Tottenham XI for the Super Cup clash is as follows: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence; Bentancur, Sarr; Kudus, Bergvall, Odobert; Richarlison. The availability of Solanke and Udogie remains uncertain, but the team is looking to put on a strong performance against PSG. The match promises to be an exciting encounter as both teams vie for the prestigious Super Cup title.
