Tottenham have injury doubts over Djed Spence, Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarr for their Premier League clash with Leicester.

Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johnson remain sidelined among a long list of absent Spurs players including Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero.

Being without Spence, Bissouma and Sarr would leave Ange Postecoglou desperately short of options.

Antonin Kinsky will return in goal, while Ben Davies will again partner Radu Dragusin in central defence following his return to fitness.

Archie Gray appears in need of a rest and will have to play next Thursday against Elfsborg in the Europa League, so Sergio Reguilon could make only his second start of the season at left-back.

If Sarr and Bissouma do not make the cut, Postecoglou will have no choice but to stick with the same midfield three that played in the Thursday's 3-2 win over Hoffenheim in Germany,

Postecoglou is down to just four first-team forwards, including teenager Mikey Moore.

The 17-year-old could come into the side following another lively cameo against Hoffenheim but is more likely to be used as an impact sub.

Guglielmo Vicario, Destiny Udogie, Timo Werner and Wilson Odobert also remain sidelined through injury.

Tottenham predicted XI: Kinsky; Porro, Dragusin, Davies, Reguilon; Bentancur, Bergvall, Maddison; Kulusevski, Son, Richarlison

Doubts: Sarr, Spence, Bissouma

Injured: Vicario, Solanke, Udogie, Johnson, Werner, Van de Ven, Romero, Odobert

Time and date: 2pm on Sunday, January 26, 2025

Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
