Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Sheffield United

Tottenham Hotspur will be hoping to take their positive Champions League form into the Premier League, where they have struggled of late.

The visit of impressive newly-promoted outfit Sheffield United could prove challenging for a Spurs side winless in their last four league outings, with the Blades unbeaten in that run.

However, they will hope that their 4-0 win against Red Star Belgrade last time out will act as a springboard for them to kick on and grab a vital win.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injuries and suspensions ahead of this fixture.
