Tottenham injury, suspension list and return dates for Chelsea: Dejan Kulusevski, Lucas Bergvall latest

Tottenham Hotspur will look to make amends for the disappointing defeat they suffered at Fulham before the international break when they make another trip across London to face Chelsea in the Premier League on Thursday night.

The result at Craven Cottage was Spurs' third defeat in five games, and has placed more pressure on under-fire manager Ange Postecoglou, who has struggled greatly in his second season, with the Lilywhites down in 14th in the Premier League table.

Success in the Europa League is all that can save Spurs' season, and much of the focus will now centre around their upcoming quarter-final with Eintracht Frankfurt, but a strong performance against rivals Chelsea is always imperative.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with bitter rivals Chelsea, who have not suffered a home defeat in this fixture for seven years, but saw their four-game winning run ended by Arsenal before the international break.
