Latest Tottenham vs Nottingham team information

Tottenham's victory in Frankfurt did not come without a cost. James Maddison – who won the decisive penalty for Solanke – was tackled hard by Frankfurt goalkeeper Kaua Santos and left the pitch in pain, clutching his side as he walked off the pitch.

However, he still tried to play for a while and then coach Postecoglou confirmed that Maddison was not seriously injured, so the possibility of playing next Monday is still open.

Captain Son Heung-min is still unable to return due to a foot injury, while Radu Dragusin (torn anterior cruciate ligament) is still out for a long time.

With Son still absent, Mathys Tel – on loan from Bayern Munich – is on the verge of making Spurs history. He has scored in two consecutive Premier League games and if he scores again, he will become the first teenager to score in three consecutive league games for Tottenham.

On the Forest side, coach Santo – who is usually tight-lipped in press conferences – only revealed that Ola Aina (calf) and Taiwo Awoniyi (thigh) are still being monitored every day to assess their ability to play.

Despite Forest’s disappointing performance against Everton, the Portuguese coach is likely to continue to rely on 10 of the starting 11 in the round of 32, while Jota Silva will almost certainly give up the attacking position to Anthony Elanga – who has returned from injury.

Latest predicted lineup Tottenham vs Nottingham

Tottenham Hotspur:
Vicario; Gray, Danso, Davies, Spence; Kulusevski, Bissouma, Sarr; Odobert, Solanke, Tel

Nottingham Forest:

Latest Tottenham vs Nottingham football review

Always keeping a sense of humour even in difficult times, Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou joked to the media that they would have to “put up with him for a while longer”, after leading his side to an impressive away win over Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday night.

Nottingham Forest 0-2 Tottenham Hotspur: Ten-man visitors underline top-four aspirations with win at City Ground - BBC Sport

Held 1-1 in the first leg and facing what looked like an uphill battle, Tottenham took the lead at Deutsche Bank Park thanks to a Dominic Solanke penalty and then produced a rare display of defensive resilience that may have saved the Australian’s job.

Tottenham have a semi-final first leg – which is considered quite easy – against Bodo/Glimt. However, before that they still have to complete their obligations in the Premier League – where they have had an extremely bad season with a total of 17 defeats, the most since the 2003-04 season (19 defeats).

Four of those defeats have come in their last six league games, including a disappointing 4-2 defeat at relegation rivals Wolverhampton Wanderers last weekend. Since beating Man City 4-0 at the end of November, Tottenham have only picked up more points than the bottom three of Leicester City, Southampton and Ipswich Town.

In addition, they have also lost 8 of their last 9 matches against teams in the top half of the table when entering the round. However, a rare bright spot for home fans is a series of 4 consecutive unbeaten matches at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in all competitions.

Four games to four months – Current Nottingham Forest manager Nuno Espírito Santo, who was in charge of Tottenham for just a third of a year before being sacked by Daniel Levy, has found a safe haven at the City Ground.

Just a few years ago, Spurs were favourites to secure a top-three finish, while Forest struggled to avoid relegation. But this season, the roles have been reversed: the former European Cup winners are in charge of their place in next season’s Champions League.

However, Forest have been knocked out of the top three after back-to-back defeats to Aston Villa and Everton since the start of the month, with the defeat to Everton last weekend coming courtesy of a late Abdoulaye Doucouré goal at the City Ground.

If they lose again on Sunday, they will equal their worst run of form under Santo in the Premier League – three straight defeats in the middle of last season. Defensive frailties away from home have been a major problem for them recently.

In fact, Forest have conceded at least two goals in their last five Premier League away games – losing four of them. However, after beating Tottenham 1-0 at home on Boxing Day, Forest are just 90 minutes away from beating Tottenham home and away in a single season for the first time since 1997.
