Trippier starts but key Spurs men remain out of first XI

Kieran Trippier (£6.3m) is set for a tenth consecutive league start as Tottenham Hotspur visit Wolves this evening.

The right-back has been considered a rotation risk in the past but he has been ever-present since returning from the World Cup with Serge Aurier (£5.8m) largely consigned to the bench.

However, a large number of key Spurs men remain out of the first XI with Christian Eriksen (£9.2m) and Son Heung-min (£8.3m) on the bench for a third match in a row.

Dele Alli (£8.9m) is left out of the match day squad altogether, despite a comeback from injury in the League Cup midweek.

Juan Foyth, not in FPL yet, starts at centre-back with Davinson Sánchez (£5.8m) on the bench.

Meanwhile, hosts Wolves make one change to the side that lost at Brighton in Gameweek 10, with Adama Traore (£5.4m) dropping out for Ivan Cavaleiro (£5.3m).

Wolves XI: Patricio; Boly, Coady, Bennett; Jonny, Moutinho, Neves, Doherty; Caveleiro, Jimenez, Costa

Spurs XI: Lloris, Trippier, Alderweireld, Foyth, Davies, Sissoko, Dembele, Winks, Lamela, Lucas, Kane.

    I am so going to be fine if Hazard does not play this week, Jimenez first on the Bench

  22. Make Arrows Green Again

    5 years, 5 months ago

    Jimenez on me bench after two blanks in a row. Ah well, at least his value is safe.

    This is why managers of big clubs are nervous about giving youngsters a chance

    1. barracuda
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Cups are a great opportunity. Why today??

    2. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 5 months ago

      Wolves away on TV isn't exactly the game to put in youngsters. Try Cardiff, Fulham, Burnley, West Ham, Newcastle at home

  27. Dr. Rog

    really hoping one of Mendy or Hazard doesnt start now...
