The Lilywhites hosted Azerbaijan outfit Qarabag on September 26 as they begun their Europa League campaign. Head Coach Ange Postecoglou made six changes from the side that triumphed over Thomas Frank’s Brentford in an exciting 3-1 win. Guglielmo Vicario remained between the sticks and delivered, with an astounding performance for Spurs, facing five shots and saving all, earning the Italian goalkeeper his second clean sheet across all competitions.

Three changes were made in the defensive line in front of him, with Archie Gray and Ben Davies coming in at the fullback positions, while Micky van de Ven being the only unchanged defender was partnered with Romanian centre-back Radu Dragusin at the heart of the Spurs defence. Postecoglou completely rebuilt the midfield with Pape Matar Sarr, Yves Bissouma who seems to be back in full fitness and 18-year-old Lucas Bergvall in the middle of the park.
However, the Swedish international’s game was cut short after 12 minutes following a red card offence by Dragusin prompting Postecoglou to bring on Destiny Udogie. The front line remained unchanged with Brennan Johnson and club captain Son Heung-Min on the flanks, while Dominic Solanke led the charge.
