Lamela Starts! Tottenham Teams News And Predcited Line-Up To Face Middlesbrough

RAM: Erik Lamela

The Argentine reacted well to being dropped last week, he came on in the latter stages as the game started to become more open, and he grabbed himself a goal in midweek against Gillingham in the 5-0 win. I think he will be named in the starting eleven here.

CAM: Dele Alli

The youngster has been playing well recently, and a quality performance from Christian Eriksen in midweek may have given Pochettino something to think about. Having said that, I think Alli will keep his place.

LAM: Son Heung-min

Pochettino would be mad to drop Son at the moment. The forward looked set to leave the club in August, but returned from the Olympics keen to fight for his place. Two goals against Stoke and a man of the match performance against Sunderland should see him keep his place here.

ST: Vincent Janssen

With Kane out injured, Janssen is guaranteed to start at Middlesbrough. It was great to see the Dutchman bag his first goal from the penalty spot. Hopefully he can take confidence form this and take this into Saturday.
