Real Madrid keep tabs on Tottenham's Lucas Bergvall despite new contract -  reports - Football | Tribuna.com

Tottenham Hotspur are on the road in the Champions League for the second successive game as they face Ligue 1 side AC Monaco on matchday three of the competition at 20:00 UK time tomorrow at Stade Louis II in Monte Carlo.

With four points on the board in two matches, Thomas Frank’s men are starting to mount up enough in the bag to qualify for the knockout phases and another win would put them in a more comfortable position to seal their objective.

Having said that, here is how the visitors may line-up for tomorrow’s match.

Goalkeeeper – Guglielmo Vicario is expected to get the nod in goal for his 11th game in all competitions this season.

Defenders – Pedro Porro and Djed Spence have had a great start to the season, and they both are likely to receive starts at right and left back, respectively. With Cristian Romero injured while warming up against Aston Villa at the weekend, Kevin Danso and Micky van de Ven might round off an unchanged back four.

Two changes in midfield

Midfielders – Thomas Frank is likely to ring in two changes in Tottenham Hotspur’s midfield as Joao Palhinha and Rodrigo Bentancur are both likely to drop out, making way for 19-year-old Lucas Bergvall and Pape Mata Sarr in the double pivot. Mathys Tel, who played as the striker against Aston Villa last time could be deployed as the number 10 this time.

Mohammed Kudus is likely to continue down the right wing, whereas Xavi Simons could move to the left side having played in the last two matches as an attacking midfielder.

Forward – Richarlison could lead the line for Tottenham Hotspur with Dominic Solanke still sidelined with injury.

Here is a look at the Spurs team on paper.
