Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou is waiting for further information on the severity of James Maddison's injury, sustained during the first leg of their Europa League semi-final against Bodo/Glimt. Maddison scored in the 4-1 victory but was substituted and did not feature against West Ham due to the injury. Dominic Solanke, who scored the winning goal in the first leg, is expected to be fit for the return leg. Son Heung-min has returned to training after a month-long absence, but midfielder Lucas Bergvall is likely to miss the remainder of the season with an ankle injury.
Tottenham made eight changes to the squad for their Premier League match against West Ham, with only goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, Yves Bissouma, and Richarlison retaining their starting spots from the first leg. Postecoglou was pleased with the team's effort despite the changes, which affected the team's fluency and rhythm.
With the Europa League their priority, Tottenham remain 16th in the Premier League with three games left, one point clear of West Ham and one behind Everton and Manchester United.
