Three Tottenham Hotspur players will miss their side's trip to Manchester United this weekend through injury.
Spurs and United are going into the match in contrasting form. The Reds were humbled by Man City on Sunday in a 4-1 defeat that prompted pundits to raise questions about the future of some players.
Tottenham meanwhile are in high spirits after a thumping 5-0 victory over Everton on Monday night. Harry Kane was among the goalscorers as Donny van de Beek's loan side were brushed aside.

Unfortunately for the North London outfit they did not come away from the match unscathed. Wing-back Ryan Sessegnon had to be replaced at half time due to injury and he's been confirmed as unavailable for the Old Trafford trip.
Antonio Conte confirmed in a press conference on Thursday: "Bad news about Ryan Sessegnon. He had a scan and a muscular problem. Maybe we’ll see him after the international break.
"About (Oliver) Skipp and (Japhet) Tanganga, they are not ready. We have to wait.”
Sessegnon has made 15 appearances for the Tottenham first team. He has played a part in all of Spurs' last five matches and had become a key player for Conte.
United currently sit fifth in the Premier League table, a point behind fourth-placed Arsenal. Tottenham are two points behind United but have two games in hand on Ralf Rangnick's men.
