Tottenham Aiming to Bounce Back

Nathan Jones’ team ended pre-season with a 3-0 away defeat against League One side Reading. They responded with a 3-1 EFL Cup win against Cheltenham and a 2-1 home triumph over Derby.
The south London team also beat West Ham 2-1 away in the Championship. Charlton faced 25 shots and Lloyd Jones and Tyreece Campbell scored on the counter-attack.
Predicted Starting Lineups & Team News
Tottenham (4-2-3-1): Martin Dubravka; Archie Gray, Jan Paul Van Hecke, Kevin Danso, Destiny Udogie; Mateus Fernandes, Rodrigo Bentancur; Mikey Moore, Lucas Bergvall, Mathys Tel; Dominic Solanke
Defensive duo Micky van de Ven and Pedro Porro are sidelined with injuries.
Attackers Mohammed Kudus and Wilson Odobert and midfielers Dejan Kulusevski and Xavi Simons are ruled out.
Pape Matar Sarr and James Maddison are injury doubts. Roberto De Zerbi explained that Sarr missed the Brentford game with a hamstring issue and was cautious over his return, saying:
“He felt pain in his hamstring two days ago. Nothing important, but we don’t take risk with him and especially in this moment."
Charlton (4-4-1-1): Thomas Kaminski; Joe Rankin-Costello, Lloyd Jones, Reece Burke, Amari'i Bell; Nathaniel Chalobah, Conor Coventry; Tyreece Campbell, Sonny Carey, Karlan Grant; Miles Leaburn
Midfielder Timothy Ouma is lacking match fitness and is unlikely to feature against Tottenham. Defender Kayne Ramsay is also ruled out due to injury.
Attacker Charlie Kelman is unavailable after dislocating his shoulder in pre-season.
Verdict
Tottenham will seek a big response to the Brentford defeat and Spurs have depth in their ranks. Charlton have seen a lot of high-scoring results recently and a home win with over 2.5 goals is the best bet.
