Predicted Tottenham line-up to face Leicester City in the Premier League

With Harry Kane still injured, Tottenham do have a problem despite manager Mauricio Pochettino opting for Lucas Moura over Fernando Llorente. However, the Brazilian’s performance against Newcastle United wasn’t his best, with Moura missing the best chance of the game before Son Heung-Min scored the winner.

Leicester City have struggled in recent games, winning just one of their last five Premier League games, which include losses to Southampton, Manchester United and Wolves. Things need to change and though Claude Puel’s job isn’t on the line, the Leicester City boss will want to get his season back on track.

However, the challenge this weekend will be tough, with Tottenham eyeing a Premier League title.

Team News

Harry Kane, Dele Alli and Ben Davies are all out injured. Eric Dier has returned from his injury, which means the defensive midfielder, could start against Leicester City. Other than that, Spurs don’t have too many injury issues.

The likes of Christian Eriksen, Heung-Son Min and even Jan Vertonghen could all warm the bench in order to stay fresh against the Bundesliga side.

Probable Tottenham Hotspur XI

Formation: 4-3-3

Manager: Mauricio Pochettino

Hugo Lloris (GK)

The 32-year-old wears the armband and should feature in nearly all of Tottenham’s games barring any major injury.

Danny Rose (LB)

Rose was rested against Newcastle United in mid-week but the Englishman should make his return to the side as Pochettino could switch back to a four-man defence.

Davinson Sanchez (CB)

The Colombian defender was solid against Newcastle United and came out of the game looking as fresh as he went in. Though it was a mid-week fixture, in all likelihood, Sanchez will make the starting eleven.

Toby Alderweireld (CB)

The 29-year-old recently signed a new deal with Tottenham and that has caused his game-time to increase. Despite the Champions League game on the horizon, he should start.

Kieran Trippier (RB)

A mainstay in Pochettino’s side this season, Trippier should keep his place in the starting eleven, with Serge Aurier struggling to make an impact.

Moussa Sissoko (CM)

The 29-year-old is back from injury and should keep his place against Leicester City despite playing in mid-week.

Harry Winks (CM)

Winks has made 22 league appearances this season, missing three, thanks to injuries. He should start the game against Leicester.

Eric Dier (CM)

The Englishman has only recently come back from an injury. He should come in for Christian Eriksen as Tottenham may look to keep the Dane fresh.

Lucas Moura (LW)

While the Brazilian did miss a sitter against Newcastle United in the midweek fixture, he still remains among Tottenham’s top scorers and should make another appearance.

Eric Lamela (RW)

With Christian Eriksen probably benched, in all likelihood, the creative duties will fall to the Argentine and that combined with his work ethic does make him a part of the team.

Fernando Llorente (ST)

Given that Mauricio Pochettino opted to start Lucas Moura in mid-week, the Spaniard would be hoping that he gets a chance to prove himself before Harry Kane returns.

Liverpool Women vs. Leicester City Women: Predicted Lineups + Match Preview

Published

on

The latest predictions and match preview for Liverpool vs. Leicester City.

Liverpool hosts Leicester City in the Women’s Super League on Sunday afternoon in what could prove to be a defining game in the relegation battle. The Reds have enjoyed a decent run of form recently and could open up some breathing space between themselves and bottom side Leicester with victory at Prenton Park.

https://twitter.com/mamdwwy/status/2031054865351270657

Liverpool sit one point above the basement side heading into the weekend and absolutely cannot afford to drop points. Only the WSL’s big four sides have a better win rate in all competitions in 2026 than the Reds, with 57 percent from seven games, but they need three points to ease relegation fears.

https://twitter.com/LiverpoolFCW/status/2032513269001273678

Kick-off: 14:00 GMT, Sunday, March 15, 2026
Venue: Prenton Park, Birkenhead
TV: Sky Sports

Reds Finding Momentum at Perfect Time

Liverpool have won four of their last six matches across all competitions, as many as they managed across their 23 games prior. This represents a significant upturn in form for Matt Beard’s side, who were struggling badly earlier in the campaign.

The positive news is the Reds have found some momentum at the perfect time, with the relegation scrap intensifying. Their recent victories have given them confidence heading into this crucial basement battle, and another win would put serious daylight between themselves and the drop zone.

Leicester Facing Uphill Battle for Survival

Leicester are the only pointless team in the WSL this year, losing all four of their games in 2026. The Foxes last had a longer streak of consecutive defeats in the top flight between May and December 2022, when they lost 10 straight matches.

However, Leicester beat Liverpool 1-0 at home on MD2 this season and could complete a league double over the Reds for the second time in the WSL. Willie Kirk will hope his side can repeat that performance and pick up three vital points in their survival fight.

Predicted Lineups

Liverpool (4-3-3): Laws; Koivisto, Fisk, Hinds, Holland; Nagano, Daniels, Lundgaard; Kearns, Enderby, Silcock

Leicester City (4-2-3-1): Leitzig; Nevin, Howard, Purfield, Pacheco; Tierney, Goodwin; Tanou, Patten, Chan; Momiki

Spurs Hit Seven Past Villa

Tottenham produced the performance of the weekend by thrashing Aston Villa 7-3 at Villa Park. Spurs absolutely battered Villa in the first half with Signe Gaupset, Bethany England, and Olivia Holdt all finding the net before halftime. Cathinka Tandberg came off the bench to grab a brace in the second period as Tottenham ran riot.

Villa did grab three consolation goals through Kirsty Hanson twice and Oriane Jean-François, but were completely outclassed. This result keeps Tottenham firmly in the hunt for European qualification spots and shows they are hitting peak form at exactly the right time.

United Edge Past London City

Manchester United secured a hard fought 2-1 victory over London City Lionesses to maintain their grip on second place. The newly promoted visitors shocked Old Trafford by taking the lead through Nikita Parris after just five minutes. Jess Park dragged United level before Millie Turner headed home the winner in the 79th minute.

Chelsea beat Liverpool 2-0 at Kingsmeadow while Everton edged West Ham 1-0. Brighton versus Arsenal was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.

United started brightly and were ahead after 13 minutes when Zigiotti Olme’s cross beat Olivia Clark and crept in at the far post. Melvine Malard was twice denied by Clark before halftime as United dominated but couldn’t extend their lead.

Goalkeeper & Defence

Phallon Tullis-Joyce (7/10): Called into action on several occasions but looked confident with no real scares.

Hanna Lundkvist (6/10): Did a good job filling in. Had a chance from a corner but couldn’t keep her header down.

Maya Le Tissier (7/10): Commanding performance from the captain who dealt comfortably with Leicester’s threat.

Dominique Janssen (7/10): Good shift alongside Le Tissier as Leicester struggled to cause problems.

Anna Sandberg (8/10): Strong showing from left back, always getting forward with good deliveries. Lucky to escape a penalty shout.

Midfield & Attack

Hinata Miyazawa (7/10): Great partnership with Zigiotti Olme on show again. Sent in an excellent ball for Schuller.

Julia Zigiotti Olme (8/10): United’s best player by a distance. Broke deadlock with cross that crept in before teeing up Terland. Absolutely outstanding.

Lisa Naalsund (6/10): Really quiet showing after starring against Liverpool. Hooked just after the hour.

Jess Park (6/10): Not at her best as Leicester kept her quiet. Engineered a chance, but the ball got stuck under her feet.

Lea Schuller (7/10): Her presence might have distracted the goalkeeper for the opener. Worked hard up front.

Melvine Malard (8/10): A real nuisance, making great runs. Had sights on the goal but couldn’t beat Clark.

Subs & Manager

Jayde Riviere (7/10): Solid showing off the bench. Good block on Alisha Lehmann late on.

Fridolina Rolfo (6/10): Had some good moments but couldn’t conjure up the second goal.

Elisabeth Terland (8/10): Loves scoring against Leicester. Five goals in five outings against the Foxes. Incredible record.

Simi Awujo (7/10): Forced Clark into a good save. Looked lively.

Marc Skinner (7/10): Happy with the win but disappointed by the margin. United dominated but needs more ruthlessness in front of the goal.
