Tottenham 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 second leg with Chelsea.

Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to overturn a 2-0 first-leg deficit when they take on Chelsea in the semi-finals of the EFL Cup on Wednesday night.

Spurs lost by two clear goals at Stamford Bridge in the first leg last week and therefore have a mountain to climb if they are to reach the final of the competition against Liverpool or Arsenal.

Antonio Conte's side will enter this match off the back of a 3-1 home victory over Morecambe in the third round of the FA Cup on Sunday afternoon.

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