Son Heung-min (31-Tottenham Hotspur) will start the final game of the 2023-24 season.
Tottenham Hotspur will face Sheffield United in the 38th round of the 2023-24 English Premier League (EPL) on May 20 at Bramall Lane in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England, at 0:00 a.m. ET.
Tottenham will line up in a 4-3-3 formation. Son Heung-min starts up front. Brennan Johnson and Dejan Kulusebski will play on the left and right wings. James Maddison plays as the central attacking midfielder, while Rodrigo Bentancruz and Pape Sarr provide the ball-to-receiver link in the third. Mickey van der Vaan and Pedro Foro are the left and right fullbacks, respectively, while Dragusin and Cristian Romero are the central defenders. Guglielmo Vicario will be in goal.
Tottenham will not play in next season’s UEFA Champions League (UCL) even if they win their final game of the season. Spurs are fifth in the league with just one game left in the season. They are five points behind fourth-place Aston Villa.
Fifth place is also far from assured. Spurs have a three-point lead over sixth-place Chelsea. Chelsea has a three-point lead on goal difference. If Tottenham loses to Sheffield Wednesday and Chelsea wins its final league game at home against Bournemouth, the standings will be reversed.
In that case, they would miss out on qualifying for next season’s UEFA Europa League (UEL). That’s because the fifth place in the EPL goes directly to the UEL, with the other spot going to the FA Cup winner. This season’s FA Cup final will be between Manchester City and Manchester United. If United wins this match, they will qualify for the 토토사이트 UEL. City, on the other hand, is a favorite to win the league again this season and has already qualified for the UCL.
Son Heung-min has 17 goals and nine assists in 34 league games this season. He needs one more assist to reach 10-10 for the third time in his career. He was 10-10 in 2019-20 (11 goals, 10 assists) and 2020-21 (17 goals, 10 assists).
Only five players in the EPL have achieved 10-10 in three or more seasons. Only EPL legends Wayne Rooney (five times), Eric Cantona, Frank Lampard, Mohamed Salah (at least four times), and Didier Drogba (three times) have achieved 10-10 in three or more seasons.
