Tottenham face lengthy absentee list ahead of Premier League fixture
Tottenham head into their Premier League fixture on 31 October with a significant number of absences to contend with, as seven players have been listed as unavailable for the match.
The absentees
Rodrigo Bentancur is sidelined following a red card, meaning he will not be considered for selection. Mykhailo Mudryk is listed with an ankle injury, while Wilson Odobert and Xavier Simons are both out with knee injuries.
Further down the squad, T. Adarabioyo is unavailable due to a calf injury, Lucas Bergvall is missing with a knee problem, and James Maddison is out with a groin issue. Together, the list represents a considerable chunk of Tottenham's available options heading into the fixture.
Looking ahead
With kick-off set for 31 October, the scale of the absentee list will be a notable factor as Tottenham prepare for their latest Premier League test, roughly ten matchdays into the season.
