Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Chelsea

Sports Mole rounds up all of Tottenham Hotspur's injury and suspension news ahead of their EFL Cup semi-final first leg with Chelsea.

Another London derby awaits Tottenham Hotspur in the last four of the EFL Cup, as Chelsea lie in wait in the first leg of their semi-final on Wednesday night.

The Lilywhites scraped past West Ham United 2-1 in the quarter-finals of the tournament, as Steven Bergwijn and Lucas Moura struck either side of Jarrod Bowen's effort.

Antonio Conte's side had to rely on a last-gasp Davinson Sanchez winner to get over the line against Watford on Saturday, with the Italian now set for a quick reunion with his former club.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.
