Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers

Tottenham Hotspur face Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux on Sunday afternoon looking for a win which would take them above their hosts in the Premier League table.

The two clubs - managed by Portuguese duo Nuno Espirito Santo and Jose Mourinho - head into the weekend with their respective clubs sitting just a point apart in sixth and seventh position respectively.

However, while Mourinho opted to rest players for the Champions League fixture with Bayern Munich in midweek, the newly-appointed boss still has a number of fitness issues to contend with ahead of this meeting.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the North London outfit's latest injury and suspension news ahead of this contest.

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Groin Possible return date: December 15 (vs. Wolves)

Like Winks, Ndombele has been sidelined for the last two games with a minor injury. However, with no risks being taken in midweek, it would come as a surprise if the summer signing is not recalled to the squad for the visit to the West Midlands.

Spurs have no players who are suspended for this match.
