Tottenham, led by coach Enze Postecoglou, will play Nottingham at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England on the 22nd (Korea time) in the 2024-2025 season.
Tottenham are at their worst. He has 11 wins, 4 draws and 17 losses (37 points) in 32 league games, ranking 16th among 20 teams. He was also eliminated from the FA Cup and Carabao Cup. At least, he continues to compete for the title in the Europa League. He has advanced to the semifinals.
The problem is the physical condition of the team. Ahead of the match against Nottingham, Postecoglou said, `Son Heung-min has been having foot problems for a while. I need time to get over it. Nor will Nottingham be able to come forward. It's not clear. He's been dealing with the problem for a while. The situation has not improved for us. Rather, it was getting worse. I think rest is more important than anything else. Son Heung-min is someone who always wants to train. I'll give him that time. I think we'll have to see how he reacts over the next few days." Son Heung-min was injured in the first leg of the Europa League quarterfinals against Frankfurt on the 11th due to a tackle by opposing striker Jean Matteo Bahoya. He was completely excluded from the away league match against Wolverhampton at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton on the 13th. At the time, Postecoglou said, `Son Heung-min's foot was shocked. I'm on the lookout. He said he will be fine during the away game in the Europa League. However, Son Heung-min also failed to play in the second round of the quarterfinals in Frankfurt on the 18th. He stayed in England instead of away to focus on recovering from his foot injury.
Tottenham is uncertain whether not only Son Heung-min but also James Maddison will play. One piece of good news is Hishalisson's return.

The media expected Tottenham to use the 4-3-3 formation. The attack was expected to be led by Matistel, Hishalisson and O'Dober. The midfield was predicted to be coordinated by Papesar, Rodrigo Bentancur and Kulusevski. Four Bags were seen as Pedro Porro, Danso, Mickey van der Penn, and Spence. The goal was expected to be Guglielmo Vicario. Football London added: 'Coach Postecoglou will give Hishalisson game time for his impressive performance in training.
If Hishalisson starts, it will be the first time since the match against Brentford on February 2. He has only started two games in the EPL this season. Hishalisson left Everton to join Tottenham through the summer 2022 transfer window. At the time, Tottenham invested £60 million to recruit Hishalisson. However, it did not meet expectations. I had a hard time with injuries, etc.
