Spurs predicted lineup vs Norwich - Jose Mourinho's midfield decision as Erik Lamela returns

Tottenham Hotspur came from behind to pick up the three point in their last Premier League outing.

Jose Mourinho's men beat Brighton and Hove Albion 2-1, with goals from Harry Kane and Dele Alli canceling out Adam Webster's first-half opener for the seagulls.

That win came just four days after a disappointing London derby loss against Chelsea, which opened up a six-point gap between the two teams.However, Tottenham's win over Brighton couples with the Blues' loss against Southampton means that the gap is now back to just three points.

Next up for Spurs is newly promoted Norwich City, who are fighting for their Premier League status next season.

Mourinho reflects on 2-1 win over Brighton

Tottenham travel to Carrow Road with three players unavailable due to suspensions.

Son Heung-min will be serving the second of his three-match ban after his red card vs Chelsea, while yellow cards for Moussa Sissoko and Harry Winks vs Brighton means that both will now have to serve a one-match ban vs the Canaries, due to the accumulation of cards.

Winks' absence could give summer signing Tanguy Ndombele a chance to break back into the side, after he was left out of the squad entirely vs Brighton.

Erik Lamela took his place on the bench vs the Seagulls after returning from injury, and could make an appearance vs Norwich.

Hugo Lloris and Ben Davies are long-term absentees through injury, and will be out for a while longer yet.

Have a go at what you think the starting 11 could be for Mourinho vs Norwich by using the player selector above.

A win for Spurs vs Norwich coupled with a Chelsea loss could see Jose Mourinho's men climb into the top four of the Premier League.
