Tottenham should take plenty of confidence from their 4-0 victory over Crystal Palace over to Greece when they face Olympiacos on Wednesday night.
Indeed, a clinical display meant Spurs were leading by four at half-time, blowing the Eagles away with goals courtesy of Heung-Min Son (2), Erik Lamela and a Van Aanholt own goal.
Mauricio Pochettino has said that early fixture congestion will lead to some changes against Olympiacos but Tottenham will still start a strong side.
Who exactly will those eleven starting players be though?
After keeping a clean-sheet against Crystal Palace, Mauricio Pochettino would be wise to stick with the same back four. Serge Aurier was very impressive and was handed a 9/10 by Football.London on his return to the team at the weekend and is surely set to keep his place at right, despite Kyle Walker-Peters coming back into contention.
The former PSG man has made the joint-most key passes per game (2, along with Christian Eriksen) so could be crucial in helping Spurs take the game to the opposition out in Greece.
In midfield, Tanguy Ndombele came on against Palace and has offered more in terms of dribbles per game (2 to 1.4) than Moussa Sissoko from deep positions, so could help on the attacking front.
Erik Lamela and Christian Eriksen both played the full 90 minutes against Crystal Palace hence why Pochettino may turn to the likes of Lucas Moura and Dele Alli instead as he stays true to his rotation claims, per Football.London.
