Predicted Tottenham XI To Face Sheffield United In Capital One Cup Semi First Leg: Emmanuel Adebayor Set For Rare Start

Posted by

AM: Roberto Soldado

Soldado is awfully low on confidence in front of goal, but his general link-up play has been good all season. Playing an out-of-form striker as a lone forward would make no sense, but giving him a chance to play as a number 10 could be a smart move. It would also allow Christian Eriksen to take a much-needed break.

AM: Andros Townsend

Erik Lamela has a calf strain, while Nacer Chadli has been given compassionate leave following a death in his family. Townsend should start, after impressing as a sub against Sunderland.

ST: Emmanuel Adebayor

Harry Kane could do with a rest. The only player who has the physical attributes required to replace the red-hot 21-year-old is Adebayor, who looks set for his first start in 2015, having come off the bench at the weekend.
