Tottenham could be without James Maddison for Ipswich match

Tottenham Hotspur could face another selection issue ahead of the Premier League fixture at Ipswich Town on Saturday.

SpursWeb has learned that it is understood James Maddison is a selection concern for Tottenham ahead of the trip to Portman Road having picked up a slight knock following the win against Manchester United.

Maddison was instrumental in Tottenham’s 1-0 win over Manchester United, having scored the only goal of the match in the first half to end the North Londoners 105 day wait for a Premier League victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The goal was Maddison’s tenth of the season when he reacted quickest tap home from close range after Lucas Bergvall’s low shot was parried by Andre Onana.

It is thought to be a small issue which Maddison has sustained and is not expected to sideline him for any extended period of time.

Maddison was brought off in the 64th minute against United upon his return to action with Brennan Johnson coming on in his place for some also much-needed minutes following his own injury issues.

James Maddison may miss Tottenham’s match at Ipswich

Ange Postecoglou must now decide whether to include the playmaker as part of his squad against Ipswich, or not take the risk with Manchester City the visitors to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Wednesday evening.

Maddison’s season has been impacted by injury with the England international having missed five matches as result of a calf injury he picked up in Spurs’ 3-2 Europa League win against Hoffenheim late last month.

Ange Postecoglou will be holding his pre-Ipswich Town press conference at 13:30 BST from Hotspur Way on Friday afternoon where he will be expected to provide an injury update on his squad.

Spurs fans will be hoping that Maddison can recover in time and take his place in the squad as Tottenham look to secure successive Premier League victories.
