Europa League 2024-2025: Tottenham-Eintracht Frankfurt, the likely lineups

After eliminating AZ Alkmaar and Ajax respectively, Tottenham and Eintracht Frankfurt will meet at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at 9 p.m. for the first leg of the Europa League quarterfinals. Spurs, also complicit in the complicated league situation, will try to start strong in this doubleheader to mortgage passage to the round. The German side, for its part, will be called upon to redeem the 2-0 loss it suffered in the league at the hands of Werder Bremen.

Postecoglou should rely on the offensive trident consisting of Son, Solanke and Johnson. In the middle of the field, room for Maddison, Bentancur and Bergvall.

Toppmoller, on the other hand, should confirm Ekitike as center forward, with Gotze, Bahoya and Larsson as trequartists. In defense, protecting Kaua Santos, there will be Theate and Koch in the center, with Kristensen and Brown as full-backs.

Theate and Koch are expected to be in the defense.

TOTTENHAM (4-3-3): Vicario; Pedro Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Udogie; Bergvall, Maddison, Bentancur; Johnson, Solanke, Son. All: Postecoglou

EINTRACHT FRANKFURT (4-2-3-1): Kaua Santos; Kristensen, Theate, Koch, Brown; Shkiri, Tuta; Gotze, Larsson, Bahoya; Ekitike. All: Toppmoller.
