Ange Postecoglou has defensive problems at Tottenham as Wolves come to town on Sunday afternoon in the Premier League.

The Australian faces the prospect of being without all four of his centre-backs for Spurs' game against the resurgent visitors after Radu Dragusin limped off with an ankle injury and then Ben Davies had a hamstring setback in training this week, both joining Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven on the sidelines.

Postecoglou has not entirely ruled out Dragusin yet even if the sight of the big Romanian needing to come off in the final 10 minutes of the defeat at Nottingham Forest was not a promising sign.

On top of that, Spurs have Djed Spence out with a one-game suspension after the 24-year-old picked up two yellow cards at the City Ground and the subsequent red card.

With that in mind, the Tottenham boss must decide who goes in central defence and what that means for the rest of his team. Richarlison and Mikey Moore will soon provide further attacking options but not yet as they are expected to return to training next week.

Here's the Spurs team that we reckon Postecoglou will select to face Wolves at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
