Welcome to the big game. Normally, we’d be quite confident of beating Spurs, regardless of circumstance. This time however, that notion feels a bit (a lot?) more tenuous. Hopefully I’m proven wrong.
Enzo Maresca has made a couple changes from last weekend, with Wesley Fofana and Malo Gusto coming in to the side — we’ll see how exactly Gusto and Reece James end up lining up — and Enzo Fernández pushing up a bit. Josh Acheampong and Marc Guiu go back to the bench.
