Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Sheffield United

Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham Hotspur's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Sheffield United.

Tottenham Hotspur will be hoping to take their positive Champions League form into the Premier League, where they have struggled of late.

The visit of impressive newly-promoted outfit Sheffield United could prove challenging for a Spurs side winless in their last four league outings, with the Blades unbeaten in that run.

However, they will hope their 4-0 win against Red Star Belgrade last time out will act as a springboard for them to kick on and grab a vital win.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injuries and suspensions ahead of this fixture.

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Thigh
Possible return date: November 9 (vs. Sheffield United)

The Argentine has been on the cusp of a comeback following a thigh problem suffered in training, and he is being monitored closely ahead of each fixture. He has a chance of featuring if he passes a fitness test.


Jan Vertonghen

Type of injury: Thigh
Possible return date: November 23 (vs. West Ham United)
