Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Tottenham Hotspur could line up for Tuesday's Champions League clash with Marseille.

Tottenham Hotspur defender Cristian Romero will not be fit enough to return to the first XI for Tuesday's Champions League Group D tie with Marseille, where a draw would confirm Spurs' place in the last 16.

The Argentine started last week's draw with Sporting Lisbon after battling back from a calf problem, but he missed Saturday's win over Bournemouth in order to recover properly.

Romero, Richarlison and Dejan Kulusevski should be the only ones absent for Tottenham here, as the suspended Antonio Conte rings the changes from the weekend.

Clement Lenglet and Davinson Sanchez should hold their places in the backline, with Ben Davies in line to drop out for Eric Dier, in spite of the Welshman scoring at the Vitality.

Rodrigo Bentancur was Tottenham's hero off the bench with a stoppage-time winner at the weekend and will return to partner Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the engine room, likely in a 3-4-3 shape as Yves Bissouma and Oliver Skipp return to the bench.

It would not be a surprise to see Conte make two changes out wide, with Ivan Perisic coming in for Ryan Sessegnon as Matt Doherty replaces Emerson Royal, although the Brazilian is still first-choice under Conte despite his heavily-criticised performances.

Should the Spurs boss stray away from the 3-5-2, Lucas Moura should be in with a chance of starting alongside Harry Kane and Son Heung-min, with Bryan Gil likely being kept in reserve after coming off the bench to good effect against Sporting.

Tottenham possible starting lineup: Lloris; Sanchez, Dier, Lenglet; Doherty, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Perisic; Lucas, Kane, Son
