Preview
Tottenhamm will want to put Premier League’s sad form on the back of their minds, securing a safe passage in the Europa League last OM on Thursday night.
The Spurs show that the form of relegation has lost six and has pulled one of the last seven Premier League games, but is in a much healthier position in Europe, with a win over Elfsborg guarantees itself a point in a top eight of the scores .
However, slip at home against the Swedish side, and could open the door for one of their challengers to slip on the automatic points in front of them.
The northern Londoners defeated Hoffenheim 3-2 in Germany last week, taking their record in four wins, two draws and one defeat so far.
Elfsborg, meanwhile, can crush themselves a knockout round as they sit in 10 points, two in the top 24 parts.
News
Tottenham’s long list of injuries continues to grow and includes Guglielmo Vicario, Dominic Solanke, Brennan Johnson, Destiny Udogie, Timo Werner and Wilson Odobert, who all remain available for choice.
Richarlison was forced with a problem of the groin in a defeat at Leicester and will be evaluated in front of Kickoff along with Pape Matar Sarr James Maddison and Djed Spence.
The Spurs received some very necessary positive news when Micky Van de Ven and Cristian Romero took part in training the first team this week, though it remains to be seen if they can participate.
January signature Antonin Kinsky is not eligible for Thursday’s collision, so Brandon Austin is to be replaced between the sticks.
Elfsborg has received a clean health account and will have to start a similar XI to the one who appeared in their impressive win over Nice last week.
