Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers

sportsmole.co.uk, 8 November 2023, 09:51
Tottenham Hotspur will be bidding to bounce back from their first defeat of the season when they head to Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League on Saturday.

Spurs had Cristian Romero and Destiny Udogie sent off in a 4-1 home loss to Chelsea on Monday, with the Blues scoring twice in second-half stoppage time to add gloss to the scoreline.

Ange Postecoglou's side have still enjoyed an excellent start to the campaign, though, sitting second in the Premier League table on 26 points, one point behind the leaders Manchester City.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Wolves, who are 14th in the division on 12 points from 11 matches.
