Savio starts first PL game for Spurs: Predicted Tottenham Hotspur XI vs Nottingham Forest

Tottenham Hotspur take on Nottingham Forest at The City Ground tomorrow at 15:00 local time on matchday three of the Premier League, as they seek their first win of the English top division this season following back-to-back losses.

Roberto De Zerbi will not have much time to prove his credentials after receiving overwhelming backing in the transfer market, but the fixture versus Oliver Glasner’s men will be far from an easy proposition for the Lilywhites on the road.

Here is how they could line-up for the fixture this weekend.

Goalkeeper – Antonin Kinksy is expected to retain his place in between the sticks for Tottenham.

Defenders – Archie Gray has played at right back for Spurs in their PL openers with Pedro Porro playing in an advanced position last time. Porro might return to playing full back this time at Gray’s expense, but Andy Robertson may continue on the left.

Jan Paul van Hecke and Micky van de Ven could round off the back four for the away side.

Savinho set for first PL start for Spurs

Midfielders – Rodrigo Bentancur was not at his best in the last match for Tottenham Hotspur but might keep his place in the double pivot anyways, as could Italian international and former Newcastle United star Sandro Tonali. Another lucrative signing in Mateus Fernandes could be employed in a more advanced role as the team’s number 10.

£85 million summer signing Savio might start for Spurs in the Premier League for the first time since joining from Manchester City after impressing in last week’s Carabao Cup fixture. The Brazilian could play on the right wing, with Mathys Tel on the left.

Forward – Omar Marmoush is expected to start as the number nine for Spurs as he seeks his first goal for them.

Here is how the visiting side’s starting eleven is expected to look on paper.
